Pat the country-style pork ribs dry with paper towels and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the minced garlic, soy sauce, honey, tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, ground black pepper, and salt until well combined.
Rub the garlic marinade all over the ribs, making sure to coat them thoroughly. Place the ribs in a shallow dish, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or overnight for maximum flavor).
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Heat olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the marinated ribs on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Pour the chicken broth into the skillet and add the fresh rosemary sprigs. Bring the liquid to a simmer.
Cover the skillet with a tight-fitting lid or foil and transfer it to the preheated oven.
Bake the ribs for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until they are fall-apart tender. Baste the ribs with the pan juices halfway through cooking.
Remove the skillet from the oven and carefully transfer the ribs to a serving platter. Strain the pan juices if desired and serve them alongside the ribs as a flavorful sauce.
Enjoy your Vampire Pork Country Style Ribs with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables!
