Step 1: Prepare the Ribs
Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
Pat the ribs dry and season with salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder.
Wrap the ribs tightly in foil and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake for 2 to 2.5 hours, until tender.
Step 2: Make the Honey Garlic Sauce
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine honey, soy sauce, garlic, apple cider vinegar, ginger, and sesame oil.
Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
Step 3: Glaze & Broil
Remove the ribs from the oven and discard the foil.
Brush the ribs generously with the honey garlic sauce.
Place under the broiler for 3-5 minutes, until caramelized and sticky.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
Slice the ribs and serve warm.
Garnish with chopped green onions or sesame seeds for extra flavor.
Pro Tips
For extra tenderness, marinate the ribs overnight in a mix of soy sauce, garlic, and honey.
Grill for a smoky flavor – Instead of broiling, finish on the grill for a charred effect.
Make extra sauce to drizzle over rice or roasted vegetables.
Perfect Pairings
Coleslaw – A refreshing crunch to balance the richness.
Cornbread – A sweet and savory side that pairs well.
Steamed Rice or Mashed Potatoes – Perfect for soaking up the extra sauce.
