Here’s a flavorful recipe for Glazed Pork Ribs that’s tender, sticky, and perfect for any meal:
Glazed Pork Ribs Recipe
Ingredients
- 2–3 lbs pork ribs (baby back or spare ribs)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika (optional for smokiness)
- 1 cup barbecue sauce or homemade glaze (see below)
Optional Glaze Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup honey or brown sugar
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
- Prepare the ribs: Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs if needed. Season ribs with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
- Wrap in foil: Place ribs on a baking sheet, cover tightly with foil, and bake for 2–2.5 hours until tender.
- Prepare glaze: Mix barbecue sauce with honey, soy sauce, mustard, and vinegar (if using).
- Glaze the ribs: Remove foil and brush ribs generously with the glaze.
- Broil or bake uncovered: Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 10–15 minutes or broil for 3–5 minutes, until glaze is caramelized and sticky.
- Serve: Let ribs rest a few minutes before cutting between bones. Serve with coleslaw, baked potatoes, or corn on the cob.
💡 Tips:
- For extra flavor, marinate ribs in the glaze for a few hours or overnight before baking.
- You can finish ribs on a grill for a smoky char instead of broiling.
- Leftovers reheat well; glaze again before warming to keep them moist.
I can also give a “quick 1-hour stove-to-oven glazed ribs” version that’s faster but still tender and sticky.
