Ingredients
- 60 ml (1/4 cup) hoisin sauce
- 80 ml ( 1/3 cup) oyster sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice wine
- 125 ml (1/2 cup) soy sauce
- 6 garlic cloves, crushed
- 3 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger
- 2 kg (4 lb 8 oz) American-style pork ribs
- 2 tablespoons honey
Method
1. Mix the hoisin sauce, oyster sauce, rice wine, soy sauce, garlic and ginger in a large, non-metallic bowl, add the ribs and turn them so that they are coated in the marinade. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
2. Remove the ribs from the marinade and tip the marinade into a small saucepan with the honey. Simmer the mixture over low heat for 5 minutes, or until it becomes slightly syrupy, you will be using this to baste the ribs as they cook.
3. Heat a kettle or covered barbecue to medium indirect heat and cook the ribs, covered, for 10 minutes, then turn them over and cook them for another 5 minutes. Continue cooking, basting and turning the ribs frequently for 30 minutes, or until they are cooked through and caramelized all over.
4. Once the ribs are cooked, let them rest, covered, for 10 minutes, then cut the racks into individual ribs to serve. Make sure there are plenty of napkins available, these ribs should be eaten with your fingers and are deliciously sticky.
