- Cook for 10 minutes and then drain and cool

- Put on the baking sheet and wrap in cling film
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or ideally as long as possible
- Preheat either your BBQ or grill on your oven to medium- hot as you are wanting to get that wonderful grilled, smoky caramelized look and taste
- Place the ribs onto or under the hottest part of the grill and cook for 2 minutes, turn the ribs cook for another 2 minutes
- Now turn the oven to 190C on bake for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour, you want the bones to be tender almost to the point where the meat is about to fall from the bones
- Serve and enjoy!
Comments
I have made this recipe many times and it always pulls through. If you have the time put the rub on the raw bones and let sit for at least 2-6 hours and bake covered for about 2 hours on 150C or otherwise do the faster version above.
Thanks to HAVOC PORK for providing the spare ribs the used in the cooking demonstration at the Otago Farmers Market
