Asian Honey-Glazed Ribs
This post contains affiliate links. For more information, read my privacy policy.
I may live in the most open-minded part of Texas, but I think even a lot of Austinites would give me crap for daring to serve ribs any way but barbecued! And hey, I still think barbecue is one of the best things you can do with a cow or pig (yeah, that includes bacon)! But I also like trying new things and these sticky, honey-glazed Asian-inspired ribs are a really tasty new thing. Serve ’em with rice (or cauliflower rice) and some steamed vegetables for a complete meal that comes together without a whole lot of fuss.
Looking for Some Simple AIP Recipes?
When you’re dealing with fatigue, pain, or illness, eating healthy is hard enough without having to multitask while cooking or clean up a huge mess afterwards. That’s why one-pot meals are my favorite. 28 Days of One-Pot AIP is exactly what it sounds like: A 28-day meal plan featuring only 100% autoimmune protocol, one-pot recipes. There’s an intro to explain the AIP and one-pot cooking and the preparation is so much simpler when you’ve only got one thing to keep track of. Plus, you’ll be amazed at the variety of flavors still available to you, like my Chicken Pot Pie Soup, satisfying green smoothies, and colorful salads! The e-book is now available for $9.99.
