Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1.2 lb St Louis style pork ribs (approx (545g) - 1/2 a rack (can also use other cuts, these are just probably best suited))
  • 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice wine
  • 1 tsp Chinese five spice powder
  • 1/2 tsp ginger (grated/minced)
  • 1/2 tsp garlic (grated/minced)

Instruction

  • Cut the ribs between the bones to give individual ribs. Put the in a single layer in the bottom of the slow cooker.
  • Mix together the hoisin sauce, honey, soy sauce, rice wine, Chinese five spice, ginger and garlic. Pour on top of the ribs and turn them over a little to coat. You should have a thin layer of sauce over the top and a slight 'puddle' around the ribs (see photo above). Put the lid on and cook on low for 6-7 hours.
  • After they are cooked and tender, but not falling off the bones too much, carefully remove the ribs from the slow cooker and place on a foil-lined baking sheet/tray. Pour the sauce into a small pan and simmer for a few minutes to reduce slightly. Pour a little over the ribs and put under the broiler/grill for a couple minutes to caramelize. Serve with some more of the sauce on the side, if you like.
