Azeka Style Ribs

Let's continue with our wonderful Father's Day Grilling recipes!

One of the most popular items to grill has to be ribs!!! 

So when my family decided to have a Memorial Day BBQ my sister Sue, decided to make ribs...but not just any ribs, she wants Azeka Style Ribs.

What are Azeka Style Ribs you ask?  Well, let me tell you.  They are a famous, famous rib from Kiehi, Maui Hawaii, made famous by Azeka's Rib & Snack Shop.

They are an Asian style beef rib that is just fabulous!

So being that my sister and her husband used to live on Maui, they were missing Azeka's ribs and set out to make a version of them...they have many wonderful memories of these special ribs.  Unfortunately, the recipe is actually a secret so there are several versions of what is an Azeka style rib.

So here's one version.  The ribs are fabulous, and I hope you try them!

Here they are along side some awesome Teriyaki Chicken.  See how delicious they look??
