Ingredients:

  • 3 lbs pork ribs
  • 1 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup coconut aminos
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup tomato paste
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp grated ginger
  • 1 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ribs:
    • Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
    • Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs if not already done. Pat the ribs dry with paper towels.
    • Season the ribs with salt, ensuring even coverage.
  2. Bake the Ribs:
    • Place the ribs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
    • Cover the ribs with another sheet of aluminum foil, sealing the edges tightly to create a packet.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the ribs are tender and the meat easily pulls away from the bone.
  3. Prepare the Honey Garlic Glaze:
    • In a medium saucepan, combine honey, coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, tomato paste, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
    • Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
    • Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly.
  4. Glaze the Ribs:
    • Remove the ribs from the oven and discard the top sheet of foil.
    • Increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C).
    • Brush the ribs generously with the honey garlic glaze on both sides.
    • Return the ribs to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, basting with more glaze halfway through, until the glaze is sticky and caramelized.
  5. Serve:
    • Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before cutting into individual ribs.
    • Serve hot, with any remaining glaze on the side for extra flavor.

Conclusion

These sticky honey garlic ribs are a delicious and satisfying dinner option that combines the perfect blend of sweet, savory, and tangy flavors.
