Kat's Baby Back Ribs

1 cup seasoned rice vinegar 
1 cup orange juice 
1/2 cup maple syrup 
1/2 cup water 
2 T. finely chopped ginger 
2 T. finely chopped cilantro 
4 cloves garlic, chopped 
2 t. olive oil 
Salt and pepper 
1 t. crushed red pepper 
3-5 lbs pork loin back ribs 
1 T. cornstarch 

Combine vinegar, orange juice, maple syrup, water, ginger, cilantro, garlic olive oil, 1 t. black pepper, and red pepper in a medium bowl. Reserve 1 cup of marinade. Place ribs in a shallow glass dish or large plastic bag Pour remaining marinade over ribs, cover or close. Marinate in refrigerator 4-24 hours. 

To make glaze: place reserved cup of marinade in a small saucepan whisk in cornstarch. Bring to a boil stirring constantly, set aside. 

Remove ribs from marinade and discard marinade. Grill ribs on a covered grill over medium coals about 8-12 minutes, turning and rearranging frequently. Brush ribs with glaze the last few minutes of cooking. Remove from grill and baste again with glaze (4-6 servings)

It is an inexorable Law of Nature that bad must follow good, that decline must follow a rise. To feel that we can rest on our achievements is a dangerous fallacy. Inner strength can overcome anything that occurs outside.
