Korean BBQ Baby Back Ribs
Prep10 min
Cook1 hr 35 min
Serves4-6
Ingredients
- 6-7 pounds baby back ribs
salt & freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 onion, grated
- 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 brown sugar
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 1 teaspoon dark sesame oil
- 1 stalk green onion, chopped
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar (or white/cider vinegar)
Instructions
Heat oven the 375F. (optional)
- Using a butter knife to pry it up, separate the membrane from the back of the ribs and discard.
- Generously season both sides of the ribs with salt and pepper.
- Wrap the ribs in foil, meaty side up and seal completely.
- Bake for 90 minutes.
- To make the Korean Kalbi sauce, mix together the remaining ingredients in a bowl.
- After the ribs are cooked, remove from the oven and carefully open up the foil -- be careful of the hot steam!
- Slather 3/4 of the Korean Kalbi sauce on the tops of the ribs.
- Place the oven rack in the top third of the oven and heat the broiler to high.
- Put the ribs back in the oven, foil still open, and broil until the sauce bubbles and caramelizes, about 3-5 minutes.
- Keep a watch on the ribs – it's so easy to burn them!
- Just before serving, pour the remaining Korean Kalbi sauce on top of the ribs.
