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

Prep the ribs

  1. Step 1

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

  2. Step 2

    Cut into individual ribs if preferred.

Marinate

  1. Step 1

    In a bowl, mix soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, ketchup, vinegar, garlic, pepper, and chili flakes.

  2. Step 2

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

Bake

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).

  2. Step 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. Step 1

  2. Step 2

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