Creating Thai Style Sweet Chili Ribs is simple if you follow these straightforward steps:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, combine the Thai sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, black pepper, and red chili flakes. Mix well to create a marinade.
2. Marinate the Ribs: Place the ribs in a large resealable plastic bag or a glass dish. Pour the marinade over the ribs, ensuring they are well-coated. Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
3. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). This low temperature will help cook the ribs slowly and tenderly.
4. Prepare for Baking: Remove the ribs from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later use. Place the ribs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
5. Bake the Ribs: Cover the ribs with another piece of foil and bake for 2 hours. This slow cooking process helps make the meat tender.
6. Glaze the Ribs: After 2 hours, carefully remove the foil. Brush the reserved marinade over the ribs for an extra layer of flavor.
7. Broil for Finish: Switch your oven setting to broil. Broil the ribs for 5-10 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning. This step will caramelize the sauce, enhancing the flavor and giving a beautiful glaze.
8. Rest the Ribs: Once done, remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes.
9. Slice Ribs: Cut the ribs between the bones to serve easily.
10. Garnish: Sprinkle with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro for added color and taste.

By following these steps, you’ll be able to create tender, flavorful Thai Style Sweet Chili Ribs that are sure to impress anyone who tries them!
