This recipe is really easy to make at home. It requires a slow roast in the oven for about 3-4 hours on a low heat. If you want, you can add a bit on char to it at the end on a bbq for the authentic BBQ flavour.

Prep Time

Cooking/Baking Time
2-3 hours
Ingredients

For the BBQ sauce
2 tbsp. dark soft brown sugar
3.5 oz tomato ketchup
1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp. clear honey
2 tsp. mustard powder
2 tbsp. soy sauce
1 tsp. hot sauce (preferably Tabasco)

For the ribs
2 racks of baby back pork ribs
2 tbsp. olive oil

For the rub
2 tsp. ground cumin
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. ground black pepper
1 tbsp. smoked paprika
1 tsp. chilli powder
1 tsp. dried oregano 

Method
  1. Preheat the oven to 170º Celsius.
  2. Make the BBQ sauce by adding all the ingredients into a small saucepan over a medium heat. Gently mix the ingredients with a hand whisk until smooth. Leave the sauce to simmer for about 5 minutes, then remove from the heat.
  3. Prepare the ribs by rubbing the olive oil all over.
  4. Make the rub by combining all the ingredients, and then coating the pork with the seasoning. Use a pastry brush to coat the each ribs with 2 tbsp. of the BBQ sauce.
  5. Sit each rib on its own large sheet of foil and wrap tightly like a parcel. Next, place on a baking tray and bake in the centre of the oven for 2 ½ hours.
  6. After 2 ½ hours, remove the pork from the oven, gently peel away the foil and brush on another 2 tbsp. of BBQ sauce on each rib. Cover again with the foil and bake for a further 30 minutes or until soft and the meat can easily be pulled off the bone. Should the pork still be tough, cover and cook further for up to an hour.
  7. Remove the pork from its casing and transport on to a serving tray. Brush on the remaining BBQ sauce all over the ribs and serve immediately.
