Prep 🥒
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Pat ribs dry with paper towels. Remove silver skin from the back of ribs (optional, helps tenderness).
Rub all over with BBQ Rub Sweet & Smoky, plus a light sprinkle of salt and pepper.
Shred the cabbage and carrot using a grater or food processor. Chop cilantro.
In a small bowl, mix honey, hot sauce, and apple cider vinegar. Set it aside.
How to Cook 🍳
Place ribs on a foil-lined sheet pan meat-side up.
Cover tightly with foil and bake at 400°F for 35 minutes.
Remove foil, brush ribs generously with hot honey glaze, and bake uncovered for 10 more minutes, until sticky and caramelized.
While waiting for the ribs, in a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, honey, salt & pepper.
In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, carrot, and cilantro.
Pour dressing over veggies and toss well.
Slice ribs between bones and plate. Serve with a big scoop of honey-lime slaw.
Garnish with lime wedges or cilantro if desired.
