Ingredients
  

  • 1.2kg bone-in beef ribs
  • 8 garlic cloves, pressed
  • 1 thumb-size piece fresh ginger, grated
  • 3 small spring onions, roughly cut
  • 120ml soy sauce
  • 60ml hoisin sauce
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp Shaoxing wine
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp Chinese five spice powder
  • 1 tbsp dark soy sauce
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

  • Whisk the pressed garlic, grated ginger, spring onions, soy sauce, hoisin, maple syrup, Shaoxing wine, rice vinegar, sesame oil, five spice, dark soy sauce, and black pepper together.
  • Marinate the beef ribs in a sealed bag in the fridge for up to overnight, flipping halfway.
  • Preheat oven to 135°C and double-line a baking tray with foil.
  • Place ribs fat-side up on the tray, cover tightly with foil, and bake for 3.5 to 4 hours until tender. Reserve leftover marinade.
  • Boil the reserved marinade in a saucepan for 10–15 minutes until reduced and thick.
  • Uncover ribs, brush with the glaze, and broil for 5 minutes. Rest loosely covered for 20 minutes before serving.

Tips
  • Storage & Shelf Life: Store leftover ribs in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 days. Reheat gently covered in the oven or microwave.
  • Meat Thickness: If your ribs are particularly thick, lean toward the full 4-hour mark to guarantee fall-apart tenderness.
