Instructions
- Whisk together all the ingredients except for the ribs, salt, and pepper. Reserve 1 ½ cups of the sauce (a bit less than half) and refrigerate until needed. Place ribs in a large Tupperware or food storage bag and add the remaining sauce. Cover and refrigerate the ribs overnight to marinate.
- Preheat broiler. In a roasting pan, place a roasting rack large enough to fit it. Wipe off excess marinade, season ribs with salt and pepper, and place the ribs bone-side up on the rack and broil for 7 to 10 minutes until lightly browned. Flip over the ribs so the meat-side is up and broil another 7 to 10 minutes. Remove the roasting pan from the oven and fill about ¼ inch of water, enough to almost reach the bottom of the rack.
- Heat the oven to 375°F. Cover the pan with foil and bake for 1 ½ to 2 hours, or until the meat between the ribs is fork-tender. Remove the pan from the oven, remove the foil and brush with ¾ cup of the reserved sauce (alternatively, you can make the ribs up to this point in advance, remove them to a sheet pan, and then brush on the sauce and return to the oven to re-heat and finish them off when you’re ready to serve). Return to the oven uncovered and bake for another 15 minutes. Heat the remaining ¾ cup sauce to serve alongside the ribs. Cut racks into individual ribs using a serrated knife, transfer to a platter, and serve with the warmed sauce.
Notes
- The original recipe uses the same amount of marinade/sauce for 2 racks of ribs, but I think it’s plenty for 3. If you want, you can easily cut down the recipe to 2 racks and use the same amount of sauce. You’ll just have a more generous amount of marinade.
