    Great! Lots of complements, can also use with pork.... Not sure the searing before in necessary to build the favors. Have made without that step

    Yum, yum, YUM! Have made this recipe twice, and it's definitely one I'll go to again and again. The first time I used 3 boneless short ribs and made them for my husband and me. So delicious and tender enough to eat without a knife. The second time, I used 4 bone-in ribs. Definitely liked the boneless best. Served them with Ina Garten's Crunchy Noodle Salad. What a combo!!!

    These are amazing!!! I've made them about a dozen times now and modified the technique to use boneless skinless chicken thighs and just cooked them on top of the stove-top so you can get the same great flavor in 45 minutes on a weeknight.
    You really can lose quite a bit of the salt in the pre-sear seasoning mix ... especially if you are doing it with chicken thighs. I also just use pinot grigio (which I always have in the house instead of the Asian wine indicated in the recipe.

    This recipe is totally awesome. No one can stop eating them. I am making this again this weekend. in fact, I am making more of the sauce because it never seems to be enough for us. And, I am going to make it a bit more spicy since we love the "heat" in our food. Absolutely wonderful.

    Thanks Aida!!!!!

    Ok, what else can I say? This dish was remarkable! OMG. I prepared it today for Sunday dinner and it was a hit. The sauce was tasty and the ribs were seasoned perfectly. The sauce was so good; I couldn't help but think of other things to make it with. For example, make the sauce alone and reduce on top of stove for a sauce over grilled pork tenderloin, grilled salmon or you could even use it as a sauce for a roast (pork or beef. Cook with some roasted root vegetables and you have a winner.

    For you single ladies out there; this will make a great date night dinner. Not alot of effort but a whole lot of result! Bon Appetit!

    I mixed the sauce and then tasted it and was quite doubtful. However, the end result was delicious. As another reviewer said, I omited the salt and I didn't miss it at all. It was easy to make and was very tender.

    I will make these again and again! I did all the work - except for the last 30 min. in the oven - the day before a dinner party, then stored sauce separate from the ribs in the fridge. Dislodged the layer of fat, and heated the rest of the way. So, so good! Everyone loved it!

    I made these last night, and just finished eating the delectable left-overs. I had lots of ribs, so I multiplied the sauce by 1 1/2, there was PLENTY. They weren't sticky persay, but thick, saucy, and delicious. Pretty salty though. Next time, I will not salt the meat, just use the five spice. The oyster sauce is salty enough. I served it with japanese rice and peas. My entire family loved it, including the youngest.

    Followed this recipe almost exactly, but I ran out of oyster sauce, so I did half oyster, half hoisin sauce. The flavor was fantastic and the meat was really deliciously tender, but they never quite got sticky. Next time, I'll skim the fat off the top of the braising liquid since it developed quite a thick layer. These ribs were pretty amazing overall.
