Give me Ribs Baby!

This week we have (drumroll please!) Teriyaki Honey Glazed Baby Back Ribs! Just the name itself makes your mouth water (mines sure did.) My dad went to the grocery store this week and decided to get baby back ribs. My mom knows I like to get creative when it comes down to ribs, from smoking them in the oven and then my dad grills them, to just baking them and broiling them in the oven. Personally I am terrified of the grill (bad experience in the past,) but I decided I wanted to do something different, and teriyaki seemed like a pretty good idea. So let's begin shall we?

What you need:

  • A rack of baby back ribs
  • your favorite spices (my mom seasoned it the night before with garlic and onion powder, salt and pepper, and paprika)
  • A large cookie sheet, or whatever pan is big enough 
  • Teriyaki sauce (I used Kikkoman Teriyaki Marinade and Sauce
  • Cornstarch 
  • Brown Sugar
  • Honey
  • Aluminum Foil
The night before you plan on cooking the ribs, use your spices to make a dry rub and put it all over the ribs. Let it marinade over night.

The next day, preheat your oven to 325F, prepare your cookie sheet or pan and cover it with aluminum foil and place your ribs on the sheet or pan. Cover your ribs with foil nice and tight. Once your oven is nice and hot place your ribs in there and let it cook for 2 hours. (It does take a while, but hey you can't rush perfection right?) 
Now about 15 minutes before it's time to make your teriyaki and honey glaze. Take about 1/2 cup of teriyaki sauce, 2 tablespoons of honey, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. Make sure you strain the cornstarch so you don't get any lumps. Cook it on low heat, and by the time the glaze is ready, so will your ribs!

Once the time is done remove your ribs and uncover.Preheat your oven on broil at 500F. Pour the glaze all over the ribs and make sure you get them covered allll over. Don't cover your ribs again, just place them in the oven for 5-6 minutes and VOILA! You have delicious tender, fall off the bone ribs!
