Ingredients
 

  • 3 kg Pork rib

Ingredients for the spice mix (rub):

  • 10 tbsp Brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp Salt
  • 2 tbsp Black pepper
  • 1 tbsp Chilli (cayenne pepper)
  • 2 tbsp Yellow mustard seeds, ground
  • 2 tbsp Garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp Onion powder
  • 4 tbsp Paprika powder, smoked
  • 2 tbsp Celery salt
  • 1 tbsp Marjoram

To embalm:

  • 250 ml Apple juice
  • 4 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • Bbq sauce of your choice (or prepare it yourself according to my recipe)

Instructions
 

  • Carefully peel off the membrane (silver skin) from the ribs on the bone side (pierce one end with a knife or fork and pull it off lengthways with your fingers).
  • Mix the ingredients for the spice mixture well in a bowl. Rub the ribs well on both sides with the mixture. Then wrap in cling film and place in the refrigerator for 3 - 8 hours.
  • Take the ribs out of the foil and let them pre-cook in the oven for at least 1 hour.
  • Mix the apple juice, apple cider vinegar and honey.
  • After cooking, the ribs are placed on a grill grate and are now coated with the sauce on both sides. Grill at 200 degrees for approx. 30-40 minutes.
  • Divide the finished spare ribs along the individual bones (the meat should come off the bones easily and be very tender) and serve with BBQ sauce and a side dish.
