Asian Baby Back Ribs with Panko-Crusted Mushrooms
Jeff Smith gives these roasted baby back ribs an Asian nudge by basting them with a sweet soy sauce-based marinade, which makes them more wine-friendly than ribs with traditional barbecue sauce. "Barbecue sauce has a strong flavor that dominates most American-style ribs," he says, "but here, the delicate flavors in the marinade allow you to still taste the pork."
