Have you ever tried deep fried ribs? Did you even know you can deep fry your ribs? Well now you know and now I'm going to show you how you can do it to. Don’t see deep fried ribs as a crunchy fried chicken kind of recipe. You have to approach this in a different angle. Also you need to keep the fire in the mix. A little touch of the old grill is always a good idea. Then you need sauce and sauce is key. I’m going for an asian style BBQ sauce. Deep fried pork ribs opens up a new chapter of enjoying a good rack of ribs. It’s still BBQ, only more tasty .
