Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Pork spare ribs
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 cup Pineapple juice
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Ketchup
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 stalks Green onions (optional, for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Place the pork spare ribs on a clean surface and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Rub the seasoning mixture all over both sides of the ribs to coat evenly.
Place the seasoned ribs on a large sheet of aluminum foil. Wrap the ribs tightly in the foil and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake the ribs in the preheated oven for 2.5 hours, until tender.
While the ribs are baking, prepare the Hawaiian BBQ sauce. In a medium saucepan, combine the pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, honey, and ground ginger.
Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is fully dissolved.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the simmering sauce and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
After 2.5 hours, remove the ribs from the oven and carefully unwrap them from the foil. Increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C).
Brush a generous amount of the prepared Hawaiian BBQ sauce onto both sides of the ribs.
Place the sauced ribs back on the baking sheet (uncovered) and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the sauce is caramelized.
Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired, then serve with extra BBQ sauce on the side.
