7-spice spare ribs

I decided to try a new recipe today for spare ribs! Because I was just craving some Asian (specifically Korean) food, I thought to incorporate Gojujang into this recipe. Hope y’all like it as much as I did!

Ingredients

  • 1 rack of pork spare ribs
  • 1 teaspoon of Gojugaru (Korean chili pepper flakes)
  • 1 teaspoon of ginger powder
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon of paprika
  • 1 teaspoon of chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons of Gojujang
  • 1 teaspoon of brown sugar
  • Green onions chopped (for garnish)

Tips:

  • Taking the membrane off the ribs before baking makes the ribs more tender!

How to serve:

  • The dish goes great with white Jasmine rice.

Directions

  • Pre-heat oven to 275 degrees.
  • Cut the ribs into individual bones and place them in a baking pan.
  • Add the first 6 spices and brown sugar into baking pan with the ribs and toss evenly.
  • Cover the baking pan with foil.
  • Bake meat side up for 3 hours.
  • Take out the ribs and brush the Gojujang on top of the ribs.
  • Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 20 more minutes.
  • Garnish with chopped green onions.
