Grandma’s Pork Ribs Recipe -Sườn Nướng Của Bà Ngoại

Recipe edited: 2/8/2017

My little foodie is very picky when it comes to eating meat. I recall a time when she visited Grandma in Texas and was chewing on my mom’s homemade pork ribs crazily. So I asked Mom for her recipe. I figured if I call and annoy Mom enough, she would make this at home and measure out her ingredients for me since she always eyeball everything. Let me walk you through the recipe! I hope you enjoy my Mom’s pork ribs as much as my little munchkin does.

Ingredients:

3 lb of pork ribs

1 Tbsp Shaohsing cooking wine
1/2 Tbsp kosher salt

4 garlic cloves

2 Tbsp Golden Mountain soy sauce

1 Tbsp sugar

1 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp chicken powder

honey to brush on meat

Direction:

1. Rinse meat. Rub pork ribs with 1 Tbsp Shaohsing cooking wine and then with 1/2 Tbsp kosher salt. Set aside for an hour in the fridge.

Important note: Mom said to use a paper towel to “pat” off the excess cooking wine and salt after you rub it on both sides of the meat evenly. I didn’t think it would matter. My second time making this, I skipped this part and my daughter didn’t like it. The meat were salty in some parts.

2. Prepare the marinade sauce.

Set aside minced garlic.
