Tips:

  • Choose the right ribs: Baby back ribs are the most popular choice for luau ribs, but you can also use spare ribs or country-style ribs. Just be sure to trim off any excess fat and silver skin before cooking.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what will give your ribs their delicious flavor, so don't skimp on the ingredients. Use a combination of soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil to create a marinade that is both sweet and savory.
  • Let the ribs marinate for at least 2 hours, or overnight: The longer the ribs marinate, the more flavor they will absorb. If you are short on time, you can marinate the ribs for as little as 30 minutes, but the results will not be as good.
  • Cook the ribs slowly and low: Luau ribs are best cooked slowly and low, so that the meat has time to become tender and fall off the bone. Cook the ribs at a temperature of 225-250 degrees Fahrenheit for 2-3 hours, or until the meat is cooked through.
  • Baste the ribs with the marinade during cooking: This will help to keep the ribs moist and prevent them from drying out. Baste the ribs every 30 minutes or so with a brush dipped in the marinade.
  • Serve the ribs with your favorite sides: Luau ribs are traditionally served with rice, macaroni salad, and pineapple coleslaw. However, you can also serve them with any of your favorite sides, such as baked beans, roasted potatoes, or corn on the cob.

Conclusion:

Luau ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. Follow these tips to make sure your ribs turn out perfect every time.
