  2. Fire your grill and place the ribs, cooking them for 3-5 minutes on each side, basting them with the braising liquid until the ribs are nice glazed.
  3. Alternatively, broil them for 5 minutes, till they are nicely browned.
  4. Apply braising sauce all over,and return to broil for another minute or so, until the braise begins to caramalize. Take care not to burn the sauce.

Notes
I am still new to timing my recipes. It's still 'a pinch of this and a dash of that' for me. While grilling/broiling AFTER the ribs are cooked, I strongly advise to use your judgement. For those who are new, the time given are approximate, to feel free to check on the ribs constantly while you broil or grill them.

Bon Appetit!
