For the recipe for pork ribs with honey in the oven, choose fresh meat. Its surface should be glossy, without spots. The quality of honey can be judged by its smell and taste. The aroma of natural honey is fragrant and pleasant, without foreign smell. If honey does not smell at all, this indicates that the product is falsified. Similarly, a clearly expressed caramel taste should alert you. To make the ribs soft and juicy, it is best to use double heat treatment, frying and baking.

How to cook Spare ribs with honey

Step 1

Prepare the marinade. In a deep container, mix soy sauce, honey and Dijon mustard. Pour in 1 tbsp. vegetable oil. Stir until the honey dissolves. Add garlic, salt, herbs and ground black pepper. Place the ribs in a deep bowl or saucepan and pour the resulting marinade over them. Leave to marinate for about 2 hours.

Step 2

Bake the marinated ribs in the oven. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Bake the ribs for 40 minutes in the oven, placing them in a baking dish or on a baking sheet.

Can I substitute honey with another sweetener in the marinade?

Yes, you can use maple syrup, agave nectar, or brown sugar as alternatives to honey for a similar sweetness. Adjust the quantity to taste.

How long can I store leftover honey-glazed ribs in the fridge?

Store leftover ribs in an airtight container for up to 3–4 days. Reheat in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for best texture.

Can I make this recipe without soy sauce for a gluten-free version?

Yes, use tamari or coconut aminos as a gluten-free substitute for soy sauce while keeping the savory umami flavor.

What sides pair well with honey-glazed spare ribs?

Serve with coleslaw, roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh green salad for a balanced meal.

Can I grill the ribs instead of baking them?

Absolutely! Grill over medium heat for 20–25 minutes, basting with extra marinade for a smoky charred flavor.

How can I make the ribs less sweet?

Reduce the honey by half and add a splash of apple cider vinegar or lime juice to balance the sweetness with acidity.

Can I freeze marinated ribs before cooking?

Yes, freeze ribs in the marinade for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before baking for even cooking.

What cut of ribs works best for this recipe?

Baby back ribs or St. Louis-style ribs are ideal, but any pork ribs will work. Adjust cooking time for thicker cuts.
