How to Make Chinese Five Spice Ribs

Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
In a small bowl, thoroughly combine all rub ingredients (see below).
Place ribs on a wire rack set inside a foil-lined baking pan. Generously rub the spice mixture evenly onto both sides of the ribs.
Bake ribs meat-side up for 2 hours, or until each rack bends easily in the middle when lifted with tongs.
While ribs are baking, whisk together all sauce ingredients in a separate bowl. Set aside until ready to serve.
**Tip:** These ribs can be baked ahead of time and reheated, making them perfect for large gatherings or meal prepping!
**To reheat:** Bake partially covered with foil at 250°F (120°C) for 30 minutes, or until heated through.
