Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs pork ribs (baby back or spare)
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce (or coconut aminos for gluten-free)
- 3 tbsp brown sugar
- 3–6 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp white vinegar (optional)
- 1 tsp baking soda
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional dry rub: salt, pepper, paprika, chili powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut ribs into individual pieces if desired.
- Mix honey, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, vinegar (if using), and baking soda in a bowl until smooth.
- Toss ribs in the mixture to coat well.
- Place ribs meat-side up on a foil-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper.
- Bake for 1 hour, turning and basting every 20 minutes with remaining sauce.
- For slow cooker: apply dry rub, cook on high for 4 hours or low for 7–8 hours. Finish under broiler after brushing with thickened sauce.
- Rest ribs for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Baby back ribs are more tender; spare ribs offer a meatier bite.
- Coconut aminos can substitute soy sauce for a paleo or gluten-free option.
- Broil for 2–3 minutes after baking to enhance stickiness.
- Leftovers can be stored refrigerated for 3 days or frozen up to 3 months.
- Pairs well with coleslaw, rice, or roasted vegetables.
