Ribs in honey mustard sauce in the oven

Simple recipe

400 grams of pork ribs;
one teaspoon of mustard;
one teaspoon of honey.

Place the mustard in a small bowl and stir in the honey. Liquid is best suited for these purposes.
But if you don’t have one, then you can melt the candied one.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly, gradually adding a small amount of water.
The resulting mixture must be coated on all sides of the meat.
Transfer the ribs with honey to a wire rack and place in the oven.
The baking time for these ribs in honey sauce is a total of two hours. After the first hour they will need to be turned over.

How to cook pork ribs

For preparation you will need:

ribs;
herbs (I used fresh oregano);
salt;
Bay leaf.

For the sauce:

honey - 1 tbsp. spoon;
mustard - 1 tbsp. spoon.

When marinating ribs, I do not use the classic marinade as for meat. Why? Yes, because the intercostal muscles are not the same as those in the back or the scapular. They are short and soft. There is no point in treating such meat with acids; it will already be tender and juicy.

I do this:

I place herbs and bay leaves on the bottom of the pan;
I sprinkle the ribs with salt without fanaticism and place them on top of the herbs;
I put the herbs on top again and cover with a lid;
I put it in the refrigerator for 10-12 hours.

With added soy sauce

If you want your ribs in honey sauce to have a slight oriental touch, you can add a little soy sauce to them. This appetizer turns out to be incredibly tender and slightly piquant.

Prepare the following ingredients:

1.5 kilograms of ribs;
olive oil;
4 tablespoons honey;
5 tablespoons of soy sauce;
spices.

The meat must be washed in running water, dried and cut into small pieces.
Place a saucepan of water on the fire. Add a little salt and bring to a boil. Place the meat in the pan and simmer for 15 minutes.
Melt honey in a water bath and add soy sauce. Add some red pepper. Cook the resulting mixture until it thickens.
Grease a baking dish with a little olive oil. Lightly soak the ribs in soy sauce and place them in the pan.
This dish should be baked in the oven at a temperature of about 190°C for 10 minutes. As soon as the meat acquires a pleasant golden brown color, it can be removed.

Soy sauce contains a sufficient amount of salt, so there is no need to add additional salt to the dish.

An excellent option for a delicious appetizer would be ribs in honey sauce. In order for them to turn out soft and juicy, they need to be kept in the marinade for some time.

How to choose pork ribs

Choosing pork ribs at the market is not difficult. At the same time, take a closer look at the lard. If it is beautiful, fragrant, and at least 4 cm in height, then there is a possibility that the pig was domesticated. You can ask what the animal was fed. If the food is homemade: corn, ground grain, potatoes, beets - great, you need to take it. If the piglet is fed with compound feed, this is a disaster. There are a lot of different things in compound feeds, especially those that do not add taste and aroma to the meat.

A separate conversation about supermarkets. There, all the meat is farmed and the animals are fed only with compound feed. Of course, a person has less and less choice, we have what we have. Go to the market.

If the ribs are not fatty, then the taste will not be very good. Don't worry about excess fat. When baked in the oven, it will remain on the baking sheet. If you cook on the grill, excess fat will accumulate. But such ribs will be juicy and tasty. What is the use of bones covered with charred connective tissue, is it tasty?

Pork ribs in honey mustard sauce

Previously, in order to look good, be slim and beautiful, I followed a fairly strict diet, in which I completely had to give up pork, beef, lard, flour and sweets. I achieved the effect of a slender appearance, but when my husband and I decided that it was enough to live alone and it was time to get pregnant, it turned out that my body was completely lacking the necessary fats, which is why pregnancy did not occur. My doctor recommended returning to my previous diet with the inclusion of fatty meats, including pork. I did just that, and within a year I was babysitting my first-born. From that time on, I began to prepare dishes not only from poultry meat, but also others. So, one of the favorite family recipes was the recipe for cooking pork ribs in honey-mustard sauce, baked in the oven. I always choose fleshy pieces from a young animal for this dish, because the intercostal meat is the most juicy and tender. The taste of meat in this recipe is very favorably emphasized by sweet honey and spicy mustard. Thus, the result is a dish that is bright in taste and absolutely unforgettable.

Ingredients:

- 350 grams of pork ribs,

- 10 grams of mustard,

- 10 milliliters of sunflower oil,

- 20 milliliters of soy sauce,

- salt to taste

When preparing the dish, start with the right choice of meat, in this case pork ribs. Wherever you buy meat, the first thing you should pay attention to is the smell: it should be pleasant, slightly sweet. The appearance of the pork ribs is also important: they should have a light shade, several thin layers of white bacon, the surface of the ribs should be smooth, shiny, free from stains and sticky mucus. Before buying, try pressing the pulp with your thumb: the indentation formed should quickly recover. Naturally, a meaty version of pork ribs is suitable for this type of dish. So, after purchasing meat, rinse it with water, remove the film from the ribs, rinse again, cut into pieces approximately 7-10 centimeters in length (3-4 ribs). Place in a mold and add salt.

Next, pour this sweet spicy mixture over the pork ribs, stir so that the mixture is evenly distributed over the surface of the meat. Leave the meat in the marinade for 3 hours.

After this amount of time has passed, place the marinated ribs in a deep heat-resistant dish, then place in an oven preheated to 180 degrees. Bake for about 40 minutes, 5-10 minutes before cooking, remove the meat from the oven, pour over the remaining marinade and return to the oven to bake until fully cooked.

How to grill pork ribs

Grill recipes rule. Place the marinated pork ribs on the grill. In time it is 15 minutes on one side and 15 minutes on the other.
