BBQ Pork Ribs

Succulent, sticky pork ribs are tender and finger-licking good. Perfect for a casual dinner with friends, a snack to accompany a sporting event or barbecue in the garden. Serve with loaded potato skins for ultimate success.

If you prefer beef, this recipe will work equally beautifully, but personally, we love pork. Where possible, buy your ribs from your butcher, but supermarket butchers will usually have some nice meaty ones at the counter. To save on work, as your butcher to remove the membrane for you.

There are few things more enjoyable that chewing sweet, juicy meat off the bone – and ribs are the best way to do this. Flavourful meat, soft marbled fat and sticky barbecue sauce – a combination made in heaven.

Slow cook your ribs in the oven and then either under the grill, or on the barbeque, for a chargrilled, caramelised finish.
