Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Pork ribs
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.333 cup Honey
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Ketchup
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs for better tenderness. Rinse the ribs under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Rub this dry mixture generously over both sides of the ribs.
Drizzle the ribs with olive oil and rub it in evenly to help the seasonings adhere.
Wrap the seasoned ribs tightly in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 hours, until the meat is tender and almost falling off the bone.
While the ribs bake, prepare the honey glaze: In a small saucepan, combine the honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, ketchup, and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the ribs are done baking, remove them from the oven and carefully open the foil. Increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C).
Brush a generous layer of the honey glaze over both sides of the ribs. Leave them uncovered and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the glaze becomes sticky and caramelized.
Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing into individual ribs.
Serve immediately with extra honey glaze on the side, if desired.
