Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 pounds ribs (baby back or spare ribs)
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated (or to taste)
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
- Green onions, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
- Remove the silver skin from the back of your ribs for improved tenderness. Use a paper towel for a better grip.
Mixing Sauce

- Taste the sauce to ensure it's to your liking.
Coating Ribs
- Place your ribs in a large baking dish and pour the honey garlic sauce over them.
- Rub the sauce all over the ribs to ensure they are generously coated.
Baking Ribs
- Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for about 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the ribs are fork-tender.
Finishing Touch
- Remove the foil and turn on your broiler. Brush on more of the honey garlic sauce.
- Broil for about 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and caramelized.
Garnishing and Serving
- Sprinkle sesame seeds and green onions on top before serving.
- Serve with your favorite sides such as coleslaw, baked beans, or salad.
Notes
Leftover sauces can be drizzled over rice or noodles. Use a sharp knife to cut the ribs into portions after cooking for easier serving.
