Ingredients

  • ½ tsp ground cayenne pepper
  • 2 racks of raw pork baby back ribs
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • ½ tsp mustard powder
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 2 tbsp smoked paprika
  • 6 tbsp ready-made barbecue sauce
  • 2 tsp fine salt
  • 3 tbsp white sugar

Preparation

  1. Heat the oven to 150 °C. Slip a blunt knife under the membrane on the bone side, grip it with kitchen paper and peel it away. Put the ribs in a large tray lined with heavy-duty foil.

  2. Mix sugar, salt, paprika, garlic and onion powders, cumin, oregano, mustard powder and cayenne. Divide the mixture into 2 equal portions. Rub the ribs with one portion. Leave for 15 min, then rub the remainder all over.

    2 tsp fine salt
    3 tbsp white sugar

    • spoon

  3. Seal the tray tightly with foil. Bake for about 120 min. Open carefully: the meat should be tender and loosen easily from the bones. If still firm, cover again and cook longer before glazing.

  4. Remove the upper foil, brush all the barbecue sauce over the ribs and grill for about 3 min, watching constantly. Stop when the sauce bubbles and caramelises without blackening. Rest for 10 min before cutting between the bones.
