Summer time is rib time! Honey garlic ribs will have them coming back for more so make double!

Ribs just for garlic lovers! They're easy to make and better to eat.

Calling All Garlic Lovers

I admit it. I’m a garlic lover. So when a recipe calls for some amount of the pungent bulb, I tend to double that amount! If you’re not insanely in love with garlic, these ribs will still please. Just use the standard amount given in the recipe. And, of course, if you’re a lover then double it.

This honey garlic ribs recipe will work best with baby back pork ribs, but the classic spare ribs will work just as well. And if you can find beef baby back ribs, it’ll work with those too.

Cooking The Ribs

There’s several ways to cook these ribs. You can pick the one that you like the best.

My preferred way is either by indirect heat on an outdoor grill or in the oven. Either of these methods isn’t quick, but returns the best results in my own opinion.

If you don’t want to bother with lighting the oven in the summer or want to conserve the propane in your outside grill, then go with your Instant Pot (or any electronic pressure cooker). If I’m using the pressure cooker, I do my ribs on high pressure for 13 minutes and release the pressure immediately. That produces a texture like Chinese restaurant ribs. If you want them to fall off the bone, then cook for 18 minutes and let the pressure drop naturally. Use the marinade as the liquid for the pot.

Another method is using the slow cooker. I don’t add any liquid to the pot. If you want to do so, again, use the marinade as the liquid. Cook them for about 8 hours on low.

Now once they’re cooked–by any method–you finish them off either under the broiler or over direct heat on the outside grill. This will slightly caramelize the sugars in the honey and crisp them up, especially if you used the Instant Pot or slow cooker method.

The Perfect Glaze

This glaze is perfect in my opinion.

The reason for that is it’s very simple. Most times, the simplest things are the best and the most tasty.

It’s just honey, garlic and a drop of soy sauce. Can’t get much easier than that!
