These baked pork ribs are irresistibly tender, coated in a rich, flavorful honey soy sauce marinade that caramelizes beautifully in the oven. A perfect balance of sweet, savory, and smoky flavors, this dish is easy to prepare yet tastes like a restaurant-quality meal.
Rinse pork ribs carefully under running water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Separate ribs with a knife (if you want, you can also get rid of the membrane on the ribs).
Season ribs in a separate bowl with salt and black pepper generously. Leave them aside.
Meanwhile, let’s make a sauce in a separate bowl. First, pour soy sauce and add mustard. Mix them with olive oil, honey, and white vinegar.
Add pressed garlic and a mix of herbs. Stir until smoothly combined. Make sure that honey fully dissolves in the marinade.
Pour marinade over pork ribs; let them rest at least for a couple of hours. Make sure that every piece is covered in marinade and from time to time turn the ribs over for them to marinate evenly.
Preheat oven to 200°C/400°F.
Move the marinated ribs to the baking tray. Place the baking tray in the center of the oven and roast ribs for 60 minutes. In 30 minutes, turn them to the other side to make both sides crispy and browned.
Let the ribs cool down a bit before serving. Best enjoyed with roasted or fresh veggies!
