Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Country-style pork ribs
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 cup Plum preserves
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 2 stalks Green onions, chopped (optional, for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Season the country-style pork ribs with salt, black pepper, ground cinnamon, and garlic powder. Rub the seasoning evenly over all sides of the ribs.
Place the seasoned ribs in a large roasting pan, ensuring they are in a single layer.
Cover the roasting pan tightly with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 2 hours, or until the ribs are tender.
While the ribs bake, prepare the plum glaze. In a medium saucepan, combine the plum preserves, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, honey, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes. Stir well.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer the glaze for 5-7 minutes, or until it thickens slightly.
Remove the ribs from the oven after 2 hours and carefully uncover the roasting pan. Brush the ribs generously with the prepared plum glaze, coating each rib thoroughly.
Increase the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C). Return the ribs to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, basting with more glaze halfway through.
When the ribs are caramelized and sticky, remove them from the oven and let them rest for 5-10 minutes.
Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired, before serving. Enjoy the sweet and savory flavors of these plum-glazed country ribs!
