Ingredients:
- 2 racks baby back pork ribs
- 1/3 cup coconut aminos (or tamari/soy sauce)
- 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
- 2/3 cup honey (or maple syrup)
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
Instructions:
- Preparation: Preheat the oven to 350º Fahrenheit (175º Celsius). Remove the membrane from the ribs by placing them on a cutting board with the meaty side down, bone side facing up. Use a knife to gently separate the opaque layer of tissue from the meat and bones. Ensure to remove the membrane in one piece for tender ribs.
- Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together coconut aminos, vinegar, honey, garlic, and black pepper.
- Assembly: Place a large piece of tin foil on a baking sheet or large baking dish. Arrange the ribs, meat side down, on the tin foil. Pour half of the sauce over the ribs, ensuring both sides are coated. Fold the tin foil over the ribs, sealing the edges to create a snug “package”.
- Bake: Place the tray in the oven and bake for 2 hours and 30 minutes until the ribs are tender.
- Finishing Touch: After 2 hours and 30 minutes, increase the oven temperature to 400º Fahrenheit (200º Celsius). Flip the ribs over, meat side facing up, baste with the remaining sauce, and cook uncovered for an additional 5 minutes to achieve a golden brown finish on the meat.
