Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 90 minutes boiling, 15 minutes on grill
Total Time: About 2 hours

Servings: 4

Cuisine: Hawaiian
Course: Appetizer or Main Course

Serve With: Ginger-Spiced Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients:

  • 2 racks of pork spare ribs or baby back ribs

Sauce:
  • 1 cup hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger (or garlic-shallot puree)
  • 1 tablespoon pineapple juice
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce (Chinese chili paste)
  • 2 tablespoons honey

Directions:

  1. To begin this pork rib recipe, slow boil the pork ribs for 90 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
  2. Prepare the bbq pork ribs sauce by mixing the hoisin, garlic, ginger, pineapple juice, Sriracha sauce and honey.
  3. Baste the pork back ribs on both sides with the sauce. When preparing any pork rib recipes, it's always good to baste them on the grill too!
  4. When cooking pork ribs, I always use a grill or charcoal barbeque. Though we're using pork baby back ribs, you can certainly use pork spareribs in this recipe. If using a charcoal bbq, set your coals to one side so the meat is not on direct heat.
  5. To barbeque pork ribs, simply place them on a preheated grill over indirect heat. My grill has three burners. The outer two are set to high heat and the middle burner is shut off, or set to low. Keep a close watch on them while they cook, as they can burn quickly. There's nothing worse than grilled pork ribs that have been blackened beyond recognition!
  6. Cook for about 15 minutes, turning and basting until they become sticky and caramelized. If cooking in the oven, place on a cookie sheet and bake in a preheated 450 F oven for 15-20 minutes.
  7. I hope you enjoy this Hawaiian recipe for pork ribs!

Chef Jason's Notes: Each rack has about 10-14 bones. Pork spare ribs have less meat and are bonier and fattier than baby back ribs. I'm using hoisin sauce as the base, but have found that not all hoisin sauces are created equal and your recipe will taste different based on the brand you choose. Hoisin is a sweet soy-based sauce made with garlic, vinegar and chiles.
