Ingredients

2 (3-pound) slabs country-style pork ribs, sliced into individual ribs
2 teaspoons salt
2 cups Steen's 100 percent pure cane syrup or other cane syrup
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1/4 cup minced yellow onion
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
2 tablespoons peeled and grated fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Scallions (green parts only), thinly sliced on the bias, for garnish

Directions

Put the ribs in a very large soup pot or kettle. Add the salt and enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil and let boil for 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and drain.

Whisk the remaining ingredients together in a medium-size mixing bowl, blending well. Put the ribs in a large, deep braising pan or roasting pan and pour half of the marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours, turning the ribs in the marinade every hour.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Cover with foil and cook, basting with the reserved marinade and turning the ribs every 15 minutes, for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

Remove the ribs from the pan. Divide among 6 plates and garnish with sliced scallions.

sooo good
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was the best mixture of sweet and spicy that I have had in awhile! I was very impressed with how they came out. I used... what ingredients I did have and then improvised the rest. I didn't have fresh ginger, so I used ground..I didn't have soy sauce so I added about 1/4 cup hosin sauce...I didn't have the cane sugar, so I used another reviewers idea of making a simple syrup but I only made 1 1/2 cups instead of two (was worried about it being to sweet)...and then for more heat I added lots more cayenne pepper. It was wonderful and U won't be changing a thing when I make in the future!! For the reviewer who said it stuck to your teeth, the only thing I can think of is if you had more than 3 pounds of ribs that you didn't double the marianade. ...I had lots of sauce in mine.Read more

Sweet And Sassy!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

These were tender, flavorful, but a bit too sweet for my taste. But that's ok, because everybody's taste is different. I... would have added a sprinkle of red pepper flakes had I known that the cayenne would not be enough. I ordered the Steen's cane sugar from CajunSupermarket.com and got the sesame oil from Safeway, if you live in California. Overall, served them with a side of pasta, fresh steamed green beans with diced red peppers and BAM!Read more

Passion Ribs
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My sister made these fabulous ribs for my family's New Year's Day Dinner and I must say that the flavor and texture of the... luscious meat has evoked such a feeling of goodness that I must call these meaty sticks "Passion Ribs"! I WILL be serving these to my husband on Valentines Day. All foodies must try this recipe as soon as possible... or else! :)Read more

Not what I expected
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I was expecting more of a traditional rib, but these had an Asian flare. They were tender and tasted okay just not what I... was expecting. I also substituted the sugar cane syrup with karo syrup because they did not have it in the first two stores that I went to. I was suprised that no one esle mentioned the Asian flavor.Read more

Crazy good
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My husband loved this dish. The sauce was great for dipping the ribs in. I will make sticky rice with it next time. I used... maple syrup instead of cane and it came out great. Thanks Emeril you never let me down.Read more
