Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a large baking dish with aluminum foil and set aside.
-
Place the spareribs on a cutting board and remove the tough membrane from the back of the ribs.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, minced garlic, ground ginger, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
-
Place the spareribs in a large resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the ribs, ensuring they are evenly coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
-
Remove the spareribs from the marinade and place them on the prepared baking dish. Reserve the marinade for basting later. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the meat is tender and cooked through.
-
Every 30 minutes, uncover the ribs and baste them with the reserved marinade to keep them moist and flavorful.
-
Once cooked, remove the ribs from the oven and switch the oven setting to broil. Brush the ribs with extra marinade and broil for 5-7 minutes, or until the glaze is sticky and caramelized.
-
Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Cut the ribs between the bones and serve hot, garnished with pineapple slices and fresh cilantro.
