Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds pork ribs
- 1 cup hoisin sauce
- 0.33 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 4 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 pieces scallions, thinly sliced (optional garnish)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Remove the thin membrane from the back of the pork ribs to allow better seasoning penetration. Rinse the ribs and pat them dry with paper towels.
Season the ribs evenly with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Place the ribs on a large sheet of aluminum foil, meat-side up. Wrap them tightly in the foil to form a sealed packet and place the packet on a baking sheet.
Bake the ribs in the preheated oven for 2 hours until tender and the meat easily pulls away from the bones.
While the ribs are baking, prepare the honey hoisin sauce. In a medium bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil until smooth.
After 2 hours, remove the ribs from the oven and carefully open the foil packet. Drain off any excess liquid.
Set your oven to broil (or preheat a grill for high heat). Brush a generous layer of the honey hoisin sauce over the ribs.
Place the ribs under the broiler (or on the grill) and cook for 5-7 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning, until the sauce caramelizes and becomes sticky.
Remove the ribs from the oven or grill and let them rest for 5 minutes.
Slice the ribs into individual pieces and garnish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy!
