Ingredients: 

1 kg of prime pork ribs

Marinade Rub: 

• 1.5 tbsp brown sugar
• 4 tsp Nomu Poultry Rub (reserved 1 tsp to sprinkle on top of ribs before grilling) 
• 1 tsp Nomu sea salt 
• 1 tbsp onion powder
• 1 tbsp garlic powder 
• 2 tbsp ketchup 
• 2 tbsp BBQ sauce (any brand)
• 1 tbsp of tapioca flour 
• 1 tsp bicarbonate soda (optional) 

Method:

1. Rinsed and pat dry pork ribs. Used a knife to remove the membrane at the back of the ribs. Use a fork to poke at the flesh part of the ribs to ensure that the marinade be absorb into the ribs. ya
2. Mix the marinate rub in a bowl.
3. Place pork ribs into a ziplock bag. Pour marinade rub evenly onto ribs. Gently rub and coat ribs fully with marinade. Flattened and squeeze out the air in the ziplock bag. I double-bagged it to ensure that it doesn’t leak. 
4. Leave the marinated ribs in the chiller overnight. (I marinated it on Saturday night and grilled for Monday dinner.) 
5. Bring the ribs out to the countertop 30mins before grilling. 
6. Lay a piece of baking paper on top of aluminum foil. Place marinated ribs on baking paper. Sprinkle a tsp of Nomu poultry rub on ribs. Wrap and fold up the ends of the aluminum foil to secure it firmly. 
7. Reserve the excess marinade into a bowl. 
8. Place on baking tray with wire rack. Grill in preheated oven of 210 degrees Celsius for an hour and 15mins. 
9. When time is up, remove ribs from oven. 
10. Open up and transfer ribs onto wire rack in the baking tray. Do not discard the liquid that from grilling ribs that is in the aluminum foil. 
11. Place ribs back into oven. Continue to brown ribs at 190 degrees Celsius. 
12. Prepare 2 tbsp of honey mixed with 2 tbsp of water. Pour the excess liquid from the aluminum foil to mix together with the honey mixture. Used this mixture to baste the ribs evenly twice while browning the ribs. 
13. Remove ribs once it’s brown to your desired liking. Cover with a luminous foil and set aside for 10mins to rest the ribs. 
14. Sliced and serve! 😋 
15. If you prefer to have a sauce to go with the ribs, combine the remaining honey mixture with the reserved marinade. Bring to to a simmer in a saucepan and adjust and thicken the sauce accordingly.
