Feed a crowd with budget-busting pork ribs!
Chef Gus from Mr Nick’s at Frewville shares his foolproof recipe for melt-in-the mouth, tender, juicy pork ribs.
Serves: 4
Prep time: 15 mins
Cook time: 1.5 hours
Ingredients:
- 1kg American-style pork ribs
- 1 tblsp garlic powder
- 1 tblsp onion powder
- 1 teasp chilli powder
- ½ teasp mustard powder
- ½ teasp cumin
- ½ teasp smoked paprika
- ½ cup red wine
- ½ cup water
- Splash white vinegar (white vinegar tenderises the pork)
- 100ml BBQ sauce (our stores have an extensive range of sauces)
- 1 tblsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Method:
- Heat oven to 200°C.
- Mix spices, BBQ sauce, wine, salt and pepper and olive oil in a bowl. Make a wet paste. Add water if needed to achieve the paste consistency, then rub paste over the pork ribs.
- Add the water to the baking tray which helps keep ribs moist while cooking. Add ribs and cover with foil.
- Cook in oven for 1.5 hours until a deep mahogany colour. After that, remove foil and slather the pork with more BBQ sauce.
- Return to the oven for 5 mins. Then, remove from oven and rest for 10 minutes and serve!
