Ingredients
- 4 pounds of baby back ribs
- 1 cup of honey
- 1/2 cup of soy sauce
- 1/4 cup of ketchup
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons of ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Chopped green onions for garnish
Directions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, ketchup, minced garlic, grated ginger, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
- Place the ribs on a large baking sheet and generously brush both sides with the honey garlic mixture. Reserve some of the sauce for basting later.
- Grill the ribs for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until they are nicely browned and slightly charred.
- Lower the heat to medium-low or move the ribs to the cooler side of the grill. Brush the reserved sauce over the ribs and continue to cook for another 40-45 minutes, flipping and basting occasionally, until the ribs are tender and the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
- Transfer the ribs to a cutting board and let them rest for a few minutes. Sprinkle chopped green onions over the top for garnish.
- Slice the ribs between the bones and serve hot, drizzling any remaining sauce over the top.
