How to Make It
- The first thing you will need to do is to remove a thin membrane that is on the back of all pork ribs, it is called silver skin. Not removing this silver skin may cause the ribs to curl, as the silver skin itself will shrink. There are several ways to remove the silver skin, just do it any way you feel is right.
- After removing the silver skin, the next step is to rub the spice mix liberally all over the pork ribs, do this to both sides of the ribs.
- Place the ribs in a plastic wrap, and cover it the with the wrap. Place it in the fridge for several hours, or preferably, overnight. However, the wait time is all optional.
- The next step is to uncover the ribs and place it on your reversible rack. Close the air crisping lid, and select the bake/roast function. Set the temperature to 300 Degrees F, and the time to 3 hours. The cook time is longer, but this will allow you check and see how well the cooking is going.
- To glaze the ribs, mix all of the glaze ingredients together very well.
- When you enter the last 60-90 minutes of the cooking time, you should begin the brush on a layer of the Honey Barbecue glaze on every side of the ribs; this should be done every 20 minutes.
- You honey barbecue ribs is ready; you can serve immediately.
