Note

Storage: Refrigerate leftover ribs in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave.

Substitutions: You can use beef ribs instead of pork, but you may need to increase the cooking time by 30-45 minutes.

Tips: For extra tender ribs, you can wrap them in foil for the first 1.5 hours and then uncover for the last 30 minutes to caramelize the glaze.

Safety: Ensure the internal temperature of the pork reaches at least 145°F (63°C) for safety, though for ribs, cooking longer for tenderness is standard practice.
