While growing up, it wouldn’t be a complete Chinese take-out meal in the Eisner household if there wasn’t a red, foil-lined bag filled with huge, juicy spare ribs in a sweet, savory and smokey sauce. This Cantonese version of barbecue ribs is known as char siu-style (or Chinese-style spareribs). This completely sensational and simple recipe will have you making my version of this sauce with accessible ingredients but you can save more time and buy it pre-made (see Jeff’s Tips) – which will also make the recipe only 3 ingredients!
