## Dietary Information
This recipe is: Nut-Free

## Ingredients (4 servings)
- 1 rack Pork Ribs (approximately 3 pounds, baby back or spare ribs)
- 0.25 cup Yellow Mustard
- 0.25 cup Worcestershire Sauce
- 0.25 cup Pork Rub (e.g., Blazin' Star Pork Rub)
- 2 cups All-purpose Flour
- 8 cups Cooking Oil (for deep frying)
- 0.5 stick Unsalted Butter (4 tablespoons)
- 1 cup Hot Sauce
- 3 tablespoons Minced Garlic
- 0.25 cup Honey (e.g., Swamp Honey)

## Instructions
1. Prepare the pork ribs by patting them dry with paper towels.
2. Flip the ribs and remove the membrane from the bone side of the 1 rack of pork ribs.
3. Apply 1/4 cup of yellow mustard evenly over the ribs as a binder.
4. Pour 1/4 cup of Worcestershire sauce over the ribs.
5. Rub the yellow mustard and Worcestershire sauce thoroughly into the ribs.
6. Generously season the ribs with 1/4 cup of pork rub.
7. Cut the seasoned rack of ribs into individual riblets.
8. Dredge each riblet thoroughly in 2 cups of all-purpose flour, ensuring it's fully coated.
9. Set up your deep fryer and heat 8 cups of cooking oil to 350°F (175°C).
10. Carefully place the flour-coated riblets into the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
11. Fry the riblets until they are golden brown and crispy, approximately 8-10 minutes per batch.
12. Remove the fried riblets from the oil and place them on a wire rack to drain excess oil.
13. In a separate cast iron pan, melt 0.5 stick (4 tablespoons) of unsalted butter over medium heat.
14. Pour 1 cup of hot sauce into the melted butter.
15. Add 3 tablespoons of minced garlic to the sauce mixture.
16. Add 1/4 cup of honey to the sauce.
17. Stir the sauce ingredients together until well combined.
18. Simmer the sauce on low heat for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it slightly thickens.
19. Pour the prepared sauce generously over the crispy fried riblets on a serving platter.
20. Serve immediately and enjoy the "Beastin' Ribs."
