BBQ spare ribs

[piebald]

What is the best recipe? I usually squirt a bit of ketchup and soy etc on them but the last few times they have been a bit disapointing, what secrets do you all have for the yummiest spare ribs?

Slow cook them .
In a spicy , barbecue type sauce , so the meat fall off the bones
It just doesn't work on a barbecue .

I can't give you an exact recipe as I just do it off the top of my head with whatever is handy but generally i use a mixture of the following, all of them if I have them all available.

honey/ maple syrup
lime/lemon juice or orange juice if nothing else
ketchup
sweet chill sauce
soy sauce
garlic/ginger if available
chinese fivespice

mix it all together cold and tip over the ribs. Cook with foil on top or in a lidded casserole dish for about 1.5 - 2 hrs

my usual recipe out of that would probably be honey, ketchup, lime juice, sweet chilli sauce, soy sauce and chinese five spice. Always tastes good!

Thats great thanks-have never used lime juice in them and i like the sound of it and 5 spice-i am always a bit wary of that as it can be so overpowering

I'm making it as we speak, couldn't stop thinking about it last night after writing the recipe down! I only use about a teaspoon of the fivespice - once it is all cooked in and sticky its a lovely background flavour.

Slow cooked lamb ribs are amazing

Marking my place for a Sunny Sunday.

1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup paprika
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon cayenne

Make the above mix ( the remains keep in a pot in freezer )

Run ribs in mustard,it keeps above mix stuck. pack on the above rub. Seal in tinfoil with 1/2 cup water

Cook at a very low heat for hours, like 250 F for 4 or 5 hours for a full rack of pork ribs. It needs to literally fall apart.

Uncover,brush with fave bbq sauce either stick on bbq to brown up or under broiler

Ribs to DIE for :o

Oh if you do pulled pork in crock pot that rub works great on that too,just the rub,no added liquid
