Savoury Nibble..: Asian Inspired Ribs

During the weekends, I always think what food I should cook..

Today..

I walked to the freezer, and saw a bag full of ribs..

I bought the ribs a while ago..

Planned to make a delicious BBQ Ribs..

Since I was pressed for time, and I needed to empty my freezer a little *yes, so I can buy more stuff^^*

So, I came up with this idea..

I made this Asian Inspired Ribs...

It is a cross breed between Chinese BBQ pork, and normal BBQ Ribs
