INGREDIENTS
| Pork Back Ribs, (2 1/2 to 3 pounds each), cut into 3- or 4- rib sections | 2 whole |
| Sesame seeds, toasted (optional) | 1 1/2 tsp |
| Hoisin Sauce | 2 cups |
| Pineapple Juice | 1 cup |
| Fresh ginger root, grated | 3 Tbsp |
| Sesame Oil | 3 Tbsp |
| Scallions, green only, thinly sliced (optional) | 3 |
Directions:
-
- In a medium bowl, combine the hoisin sauce, pineapple juice, ginger, and sesame oil. Arrange the ribs in a slow cooker and pour half of the sauce mixture over the ribs. Cover and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours or on high for 3 1/2 to 4 hours, until the ribs are very tender. Set the remaining sauce aside in the refrigerator.
- About 1/2 hour before the ribs are done, remove the sauce from the refrigerator, to bring it to room temperature.
- Arrange the ribs on plates or a platter and brush both sides with some of the remaining sauce. Sprinkle with the scallions and sesame seeds, if using. Serve the rest of the remaining sauce at the table.
