Ingredients

• 2 pounds Pork country-style ribs
• 0.5 cup Soy sauce
• 0.25 cup Hoisin sauce
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 4 cloves Garlic
• 1 tablespoon Ginger
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
• 1 teaspoon Sriracha or chili garlic sauce
• 2 stalks Green onions
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the ribs by patting them dry with paper towels. Trim off any excess fat if necessary. Place the ribs in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow baking dish.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, Chinese five-spice powder, and Sriracha. This will be your marinade.

Step 3

Pour the marinade over the ribs, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Seal the bag (or cover the dish) and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

Step 4

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.

Step 5

Remove the ribs from the marinade, allowing any excess liquid to drip off. Reserve the marinade for later use. Arrange the ribs on the wire rack in a single layer.

Step 6

Cover the ribs loosely with aluminum foil and bake for 90 minutes. While baking, baste the ribs with the reserved marinade every 20-30 minutes for added flavor and moisture.

Step 7

Remove the foil for the last 20-30 minutes of cooking to allow the ribs to develop a caramelized, slightly crispy exterior.

Step 8

Check for doneness: the ribs should be tender, and the internal temperature should reach at least 145°F (63°C). Let the ribs rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Garnish the ribs with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving. Pair with steamed rice or stir-fried vegetables for a complete meal.
