2 racks baby back ribs, trimmed
Spice rub:
1 tablespoon fennel seeds
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon garlic salt
1 tablespoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Glaze:
⅓ cup brown sugar
⅓ cup orange juice
⅓ cup rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon orange zest
2 teaspoons hot chile paste, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Combine fennel seeds, black pepper, sugar, garlic salt, kosher salt, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl.

Baby back ribs with Carolina baste image

This American pork rib recipe is sure to satisfy at a barbecue - roast until tender, then finish with a sticky glaze for melt-in-the-mouth meat

Provided by Jennifer Joyce

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Main course, Supper

Time 3h20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

50g light brown soft sugar
2 tbsp smoked paprika
2 tbsp English mustard powder
1 tsp celery salt
1 tsp garlic granules
4 racks baby back pork ribs (about 450g each)
250ml yellow mustard (we used French's Classic)
150ml cider vinegar
2 tbsp treacle
75g light brown soft sugar
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1-2 tbsp hot chilli sauce
2 tsp hot chilli powder

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Combine the sugar, paprika, mustard powder, celery salt and garlic granules in a bowl, and rub all over the ribs. Place in 2 large roasting tins with racks set inside (if you don't have racks, that's fine). Pour 150ml water into the bottom of each tin, cover tightly with foil and roast for 3 hrs until nearly falling apart. If your roasting tins are on different shelves, swap them over halfway through the cooking time. Once cooked, remove and drain the cooking liquid.
  • Meanwhile, to make the baste, mix all the ingredients in a saucepan and cook for 10 mins, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved. Set aside.
  • Heat an outdoor barbecue. Whether your grill is gas or charcoal, use low heat to barbecue the ribs. Cook the ribs for 3-4 mins each side, brushing regularly with the baste, until golden and sticky. Alternatively, heat oven to 220C/200C fan/ gas 7 and roast the ribs for 25-30 mins, turning the ribs over and rotating the tins halfway through the cooking time.
