How to Make Backyard Style Barbecued Ribs
- **Sauce #1:** In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup ketchup, 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper. Bring to a rolling boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 1 hour, stirring frequently.
- **Prepare Ribs:** Pat 3 lbs of ribs dry. In a bowl, combine 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tablespoon minced ginger, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 cup chopped cilantro. Rub this mixture generously all over both sides of the ribs.
- **Wrap and Rest:** Wrap the ribs tightly in heavy-duty aluminum foil.
- **Rest:** Let the wrapped ribs rest at room temperature for 1 hour.
- **Preheat Oven:** Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- **Bake:** Place the foil-wrapped ribs in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour, turning them once halfway through.
- **Sauce & Bake:** Open the foil and drizzle the ribs generously with Sauce #1. Repeat this process two more times during the remaining cooking time, ensuring the ribs are well-coated.
- **Sauce #2:** While the ribs bake, prepare Sauce #2: In a bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup honey, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and 1 teaspoon grated ginger.
- **Serve:** Remove the ribs from the oven and place them on a serving platter.
- **Enjoy:** Offer both Sauce #1 and Sauce #2 at the table for guests to drizzle over their ribs as desired.
