Pineapple Honey Marinade

  • 2 Tbsp. Soy sauce
  • 2 tsp. grated ginger
  • 1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 cup honey

Directions:

  1. Combine all marinade ingredients, bring to boil, simmer for 15 min.
  2. Pour cooled marinade onto trimmed ribs and marinate overnight.
  3. I used apple pucks for 3 hours of smoke at 200°F.
  4. After smoking I slathered the ribs in leftover marinade and wrapped them in foil then into the oven at 225°F for 3 hours.
  5. While the ribs were in the oven, I made the glaze by combining ingredients and simmering for 10 minutes then let it cool.
  6. 30 minutes before serving, I pulled the ribs out and put the glaze on and then back into the oven.
