How to make Oven-Baked Sticky Pork Ribs with Honey Glaze

Prep the ribs

  1. Remove the thin membrane from the back of the ribs for tenderness.

Marinate

  2. Coat ribs with marinade, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

Bake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).

  2. Place ribs on a baking tray lined with foil. Cover with foil and bake for 1.5 hours.

Finish for that sticky glaze

  1. Remove foil and brush with extra marinade or a mix of honey and ketchup.

  2. Bake uncovered for another 20–30 minutes, or until nicely caramelized.

Serve

  1. Let rest a few minutes before serving.
