1 rack St. Louis–style ribs, or your favorite pork ribs
3 tablespoons brown sugar (dark or light)
1½ teaspoons kosher salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ cup Roasted Nước Mắm Sauce (recipe follows)
¼ cup cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 lime
Instructions
Clean the ribs to remove any silver skin and membrane on the bone side.
In a bowl, combine the sugar, salt, and pepper, and rub all over the ribs. Wrap the ribs tightly with foil and bake at 300°F for 3 hours. Once done, remove from the oven and let them cool in the foil. This step is best if cooled overnight.
Unwrap the ribs from the foil, portion them out, and glaze with Roasted Nước Mắm Sauce. Place under the broiler just until caramelization occurs (about 3 to 5 minutes). Glaze one more time and broil for a minute more. Alternatively, you can do this process on the grill.
Garnish with cilantro, sesame seeds, and fresh lime juice. Definitely don’t forget the lime juice.
