Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Place ribs on a baking sheet, lined with foil.
  2. Mix together all the dry rub ingredients until well combined.
  3. Cover ribs with the dry rub, on both sides, until fully coated and tightly wrap with foil.
  4. Refrigerate and allow ribs to marinate for at least 12 hours (and up to 24 hours).
  5. Preheat oven to 325˚F.
  6. In a liquid measuring cup whisk together all braising liquid ingredients.
  7. Remove ribs from the refrigerator and unwrap just enough to pour liquid over ribs then tightly rewrap.
  8. Place foil wrapped ribs into oven for about 2 1/2 hours.
  9. While the ribs bake, combine all glaze ingredients into a small saucepan.
  10. Stir together and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes or until the glaze reduces and thickens slightly. Remove from heat and cool.
  11. Remove ribs from the oven and carefully unwrap. Remove ribs from the foil completely and place back onto the baking sheet, meat side down.
  12. Turn broiler on high in oven.
  13. Brush some of the glaze over the ribs and carefully flip over. Brush the glaze over the meaty side of the ribs and place under broiler for 2 to 3 minutes.
  14. Brush ribs with more glaze and return to broiler for an additional 2 to 3 minutes or until caramelized and the edges begin to crisp.
  15. Remove from broiler and allow ribs to rest for about 5 to 10 minutes. Top with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve.

Notes

  • Make Ahead
  • Our ribs can be baked up to 3 days ahead of time and the glaze can be made up to 1 week ahead of time.
  • Freezing
  • Our ribs can be frozen for up to 3 months.
  • To make glaze ahead of time, make as directed and cool completely. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 1 week. When ready to use, simmer in a small pot until heated through, then slightly cool
  • To make ribs ahead of time fully marinate and bake ribs as directed. Drain liquid from foil, but keep ribs tightly covered in foil. Refrigerate for up to 3 days. When ready to use, unwrap ribs and place onto a baking sheet, meat side down. Brush with glaze and broil for 2 to 3 minutes. Flip ribs, brush with more glaze and continue to broil for an additional 2 to 3 minutes or until ribs have heated through and caramelized from the glaze.
  • To freeze oven baked ribs, make as directed, before applying glaze, and cool completely.
  • Cut cooled rack of ribs into 3 pieces and tightly wrap each piece in heavy duty foil. Place foil packets into a resealable freezer bag, removing as much air as possible before sealing and place in freezer.
  • To reheat oven baked ribs thaw in refrigerator. Once ribs are full thawed remove foil, then brush ribs with glaze on both sides and place onto a baking sheet, meat side up. Place in a 325˚F oven and heat through, about 20 minutes. Brush ribs with more glaze and transfer to a broiler. Broil for 2 to 3 minutes or until glaze caramelizes. Top with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
