Pineapple Sticky Ribs
These Pineapple Sticky Ribs are not just your average barbecue ribs; they are infused with the tropical sweetness of pineapple. Grilling the ribs until tender creates a deliciously sticky glaze that caramelizes beautifully, making each bite a burst of flavor.
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds of pork ribs
- 1 cup pineapple juice
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes (optional for added spice)
- Sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish
Instructions:
- Preheat your grill to medium heat.
- In a bowl, whisk together the pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, minced garlic, minced ginger, black pepper, and chili flakes (if using). This will be your marinade and glaze.
- Place the ribs in a shallow dish or a zip-lock bag and pour half of the marinade over them. Let them marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator (overnight for best results).
- Remove the ribs from the marinade and reserve the marinade for basting.
- Place the ribs on the grill and cook for about 2–3 hours, turning occasionally and basting with the reserved marinade to keep them sticky and flavorful. You want the ribs to be tender and the meat to pull away from the bone easily.
- Once finished, remove the ribs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
- Slice the ribs and serve them garnished with sesame seeds and chopped green onions for an added touch of flavor and presentation.
Enjoy your Pineapple Sticky Ribs with some steamed rice or a fresh salad on the side for a complete meal that will thrill your taste buds!
