These are not the sweet, gooey, sticky ribs you get at cheap Chinese take out joints, instead they are drier and have a more complex and wonderful flavor.
3 lbs. pork spareribs
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. coarsely ground pepper
Barbecue Sauce
2 Tbsp. light soy sauce
2 Tbsp. hoisin sauce
2 Tbsp. tomato paste
4 large garlic cloves
2 Tbsp. coarsely chopped ginger
2 Tbsp. dry sherry
1 Tbsp. sugar
1 Tbsp. toasted sesame oil
2 Tbsp. red bean paste
Preheat oven to 275 degrees fahrenheit.
Sprinkle and distribute ribs in an even way with salt and pepper in an ovenproof dish and bake for 1 1/2 hours.
Combine the sauce ingredients in a blender and mix for 15 or 20 seconds or until pureed. Add the sauce to the ribs coating them in an even way. Turn the oven up to 350 degrees fahrenheit and bake for an additional 1/2 an hour.
