Ingredients

  • 3 pounds pork spare ribs, on the bone, cut into 1 1/2 by 1 1/2-inch to 1 1/2 by 2-inch pieces

  • 4 tablespoons dark soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • Coarsely cracked black pepper, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Place the spare ribs, cider vinegar, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar and sugar in a large bowl. Add 2/3 cup water and stir to combine.

Add the honey and sprinkle with pepper and let the sauce simmer, about 1 minute. Pour the sauce over the spare ribs and mix to combine. Serve immediately.
