Asian-Style Spare Ribs
These Asian Pork Ribs are coated in a savory spice rub, baked low and slow until super tender, then brushed with sticky gochujang honey BBQ sauce and lightly charred under the broiler. No smoker required and your kitchen is going to smell incredible.
Ingredients
- 2 racks pork spare ribs (7 to 8 pounds total)
- ¼ cup kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 batch Gochujang Honey BBQ Sauce
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
- 4 green onions thinly sliced
Instructions
- Remove silverskin membrane from bone side of rib racks, and pat ribs dry with paper towels. Place ribs meat side up in single layer on 2 rimmed baking pans. If necessary, cut rib racks into halves or thirds to fit onto pans easier.
- In small bowl, stir together salt, brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and pepper. Rub ribs all over with mixture. Let stand at room temperature 15 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
- Cover pans tightly with foil. Transfer to oven and cook 2-1/2 to 3 hours or until meat is nearly falling off the bone, rotating pans halfway through.
- Generously brush ribs with Gochujang Honey BBQ Sauce. If desired, char ribs a little bit under the broiler: preheat broiler to HIGH. Place ribs under broiler and broil 2 to 3 minutes or until lightly charred, watching carefully.
- Cut ribs and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Serve with any leftover sauce.
