Instructions
Cut up the ribs, or the pork into strips. Poke the meat with a fork to allow the marinade to penetrate better.
Mix the marinade, and marinade the meat at least 1 hour and up to 12 hours.
Preheat the oven to 300o F.
Remove the ribs from the marinade, reserve the marinade.
Place the ribs on a rack over a foil line sheet pan. Add 1 cup of water to the pan.
Strain the marinade, and pour into a sauce pan. Add the honey and ketchup. Mix and simmer to reduce.
Roast the ribs for 2 hours, and the pork strips for 1 hour.
Baste the ribs with the reduced marinade every 20-30 minutes.
After cooking time is up, remove the ribs and turn the oven to Broil.
Baste the ribs one last time and then broil the ribs for 5-7 minutes until caramelized and crisp. If the basting sauce is gone, you can baste the last time with just honey.
