Hawaiian Baby Back Ribs

No oven? Instead of baking the ribs in an oven, use a griller. Just baste meat using leftover marinade to keep it from getting dry.

Serves 6  Prep Time 20 minutes + overnight marinade  Oven Time 60 minutes

1-1/2 kilos baby back ribs

1 head garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 can Sprite
1 pork broth cube, crushed
1/3 cup calamansi juice
1 bottle pineapple jam

1  Mix all ingredients for marinade in a big stainless bowl.

2  Put in baby back ribs and rub marinade all over. Let stand for 6 hours, preferably overnight in the refrigerator to allow flavors to develop.

3  Preheat oven to 400°F.

4  Cut a large piece of aluminum foil and place ribs in the center.

5  Bring up the sides of the foil and pour in marinade.

6  Wrap foil around ribs and place in a greased roasting pan. Place inside oven for 50 minutes to one hour.

7  When done, open aluminum foil and continue cooking until ribs are brown in color.

  I've tried making this. My husband loved it! He said it's better than the ribs he has tasted in a resto; tender and not dry. Will definitely make this again. Two thumbs up for this recipe. nThanks for sharing!
