How to Make Asian Spareribs

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 1/2 cup pineapple juice, 1/4 cup light soy sauce, 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce, 2 tablespoons dry sherry or cooking wine, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons smooth peanut butter, 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tablespoon minced ginger, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 cup finely chopped white onion until well-blended.
  2. Divide marinade in half. (Alternatively, double the entire recipe for more brushing sauce.)
  3. Place 2-3 pounds of spare ribs in a large glass dish or resealable bag. Pour half the marinade over the ribs, ensuring they are thoroughly coated.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably up to 24 hours for maximum flavor.
  5. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Place ribs on a baking sheet lined with foil.
  6. Bake for 45 minutes, basting with remaining marinade halfway through.
  7. **For Grilling:** Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Grill ribs for 10-15 minutes per side, brushing frequently with reserved marinade, until tender and caramelized.
  8. Let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
