Asian Honey-Glazed Ribs

I may live in the most open-minded part of Texas, but I think even a lot of Austinites would give me crap for daring to serve ribs any way but barbecued! And hey, I still think barbecue is one of the best things you can do with a cow or pig (yeah, that includes bacon)! But I also like trying new things and these sticky, honey-glazed Asian-inspired ribs are a really tasty new thing. Serve ’em with rice (or cauliflower rice) and some steamed vegetables for a complete meal that comes together without a whole lot of fuss.
