Ingredients for Roy Yamaguchi's Original Mongolian BBQ Baby Back Ribs

Method

Directions to prepare Roy Yamaguchi's Original Mongolian BBQ Baby Back Ribs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix well until sugar dissolves.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Ribs

    Place the baby back ribs into the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight for best flavor.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

  4. 4

    Prepare for Baking

    Remove the ribs from the marinade and place them on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Reserve the marinade for basting.

  5. 5

    Bake the Ribs

    Cover the ribs with another piece of aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until tender. Baste with the reserved marinade every 30 minutes.

  6. 6

    Finish on the Grill

    Remove the ribs from the oven and preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the ribs for 5-10 minutes on each side, brushing with more marinade until they are caramelized and slightly charred.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove from the grill, sprinkle with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
