Chinatown Char Siu Barbeque Ribs Or Pork

• 1/2 cup hoisin sauce
• 1/2 cup brandy, rum, or bourbon
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons dark sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons hot sauce, such as Asian chile sauce or Tabasco
• 2 tablespoons ground ginger or minced fresh ginger
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder or minced fresh garlic
• 2 teaspoons Chinese five-spice powder
• 2 tablespoons onion powder
• 2 teaspoons red food coloring
• 2 slabs baby back ribs, cut in half lengthwise through all the bones
• 1/4 cup honey or
• sauce
• Chopped fresh chives, for garnish

1. Combine the marinade ingredients in a bowl and whisk thoroughly. Place the meat in a resealable plastic bag (you may need more than one), add the marinade, seal tightly, and toss to coat. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.
2. Heat your cooker to 300u0b0F. (You can also use an indoor oven. Just place the ribs on a wire grate over a pan or on a broiler pan.) If you are using a gas grill, turn off one or two burners and place the meat over the cool burners. If you are using a charcoal grill, set it up by banking the coals against one side for indirect cooking. Remove the ribs from the marinade and cook for about 1 hour; then paint the bone side of the ribs with a coat of the honey or
3. sauce. Cook for 10 minutes, underside up; then turn meat side up, paint with more honey or
4. sauce, and cook for another 10 minutes. Remove the ribs, let them sit for 5 minutes, cut them into individual ribs, and serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh chives.
