Honey Garlic Ribs – The Ultimate Sweet and Savory BBQ Ribs Recipe

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ingredients:

4 pounds pork spareribs

½ cup honey (for the perfect sweetness)

¼ cup soy sauce (for that umami flavor)

¼ cup distilled white vinegar (adds tanginess)

2 tablespoons brown sugar (for a deeper, caramelized flavor)

2 cloves garlic, minced (adds a savory punch)

1 teaspoon baking soda (helps tenderize the ribs)

1 teaspoon garlic salt (for
extra seasoning)

Directions:

1️⃣ Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) for the perfect cooking temperature.
2️⃣ Prepare the Ribs: Slice the pork spareribs into individual pieces.
3️⃣ Make the Marinade: In a large bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, distilled white vinegar, brown sugar, and minced garlic. Stir the mixture until the honey and sugar dissolve completely. Stir in baking soda—this will cause the mixture to foam.
4️⃣ Coat the Ribs: Transfer the sliced ribs into the bowl and toss to coat them evenly with the honey garlic marinade.
5️⃣ Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Arrange the ribs meat-side up on the foil-lined baking sheet. Pour the excess marinade over the ribs and sprinkle with garlic salt for extra flavor.
6️⃣ Bake the Ribs: Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, turning the ribs every 20 minutes to ensure even cooking and caramelization.
7️⃣ Serve and Enjoy: Once the ribs are cooked and caramelized, serve them hot and enjoy the sweet, savory goodness!
