Chinese Spiced Ribs
No rib recipe would be good enough for us if it weren't falling-off-the-bone delicious. This not your typical rib recipe though. A dry rub of exotic spices seasons the pork perfectly, while the sesame ginger glaze brings this dish to smoky, juicy perfection.
Ingredients
- 6 lb 6 lb 6 lb Pork Baby Back Ribs
- 1 Tbsp 1 Tbsp 1 Tbsp Chinese Five Spice
- 1 tsp 1 tsp 1 tsp Curry Powder
- 1/2 tsp 1/2 tsp 1/2 tsp Paprika
- 1/2 tsp 1/2 tsp 1/2 tsp Coriander, ground
- 1 cup 1 cup 1 cup Sesame Ginger Glaze (click for recipe)

I made this last night and it was absolutely delicious! The meat was tender and delicious. I would highly recommend this to anyone. I did make one slight alteration, and that was to flip the ribs at the 10 minute mark, and to re-glaze and flip every 5 minutes during the section grilling part.
