OVEN PORK RIBS WITH BARBECUE SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine the Rub ingredients and rub onto both sides of the ribs (most on meaty side). Set aside to marinate for 20 minutes (or overnight).
• Preheat oven to 160°C/320°F (all oven types).
• Place ribs on a tray in a single layer. Pour apple cider underneath the ribs, cover with foil then bake for 1 hour 30 minutes or until the meat is pretty tender (Note 5).
• Remove from oven, turn up to 180°C/350°F. Remove foil, drizzle with olive oil, then return ribs to oven for 15 minutes or until rub becomes nice and crusty.
• Line a new tray with foil then baking / parchment paper (you'll thank me later).
• Remove ribs from oven, transfer to lined tray. Pour any juices from tray over the ribs.
• Flip ribs so the bonier side is up. Slather with Barbecue Sauce, then bake 10 minutes.
• Remove from oven, then turn ribs over so the meaty side is up. Slather with Barbecue Sauce, bake 5 minutes. Repeat 2 or 3 more times until you've got a thick glaze on the ribs.
• Cut ribs into individual or multiple rib portions and serve with remaining Barbcue Sauce!

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add ribs and bay leaves, reduce heat, and simmer for 2 hours.

Stir in water, ketchup, lemon juice, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar and molasses. Season with chili powder and black pepper. Reduce heat, and simmer for 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Drain meat, and arrange in a roasting pan. Sprinkle with salt, and cover with barbecue sauce. Roast in preheated oven for 2 hours, basting every 1/2 hour.
