Instructions
1
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the Texas Pete Buffalo Chicken Wing Sauce, Asian Plum Sauce, Soy Sauce, and Honey until fully combined.
2
Place the pork spareribs in a large, sealable container or resealable bag. Pour the marinade over the ribs, ensuring they are well coated. Seal the container or bag securely.
3
Refrigerate the marinating ribs for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to infuse deeply into the meat.
4
Before cooking, remove the ribs from the marinade, allowing excess liquid to drain off. Reserve the marinade for later use.
5
In a large braiser or heavy-bottomed pot, heat a small amount of oil over medium-high heat. Sear the ribs on all sides until they develop a nice brown crust, about 5-7 minutes.
6
Once browned, pour the reserved marinade over the ribs in the braiser. Cover and transfer the pot to a preheated oven set at 325°F (163°C).
7
Cook for about 2 hours, or until the spareribs are tender and the meat pulls away from the bone easily. Baste with the marinade occasionally during cooking for extra flavor.
8
Remove the ribs from the oven, let them rest for a few minutes, then slice and serve with your favorite side dishes.
