Add salt, black pepper, oyster sauce, soy sauce, and sugar to the paste.

Prepare a large Ziploc bag by opening it and folding over the top to avoid sauce on the edges.

Pour the marinade into the Ziploc bag.

Add a little bit of avocado oil to the bag.

Add the pork ribs to the bag and massage the marinade into the ribs until well combined.

Let the ribs marinate for about 10 minutes before grilling.

Grill the ribs for about 20 minutes, flipping them continuously to achieve a nice char.
