I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
Line a large baking tray with baking paper and place a baking rack into the tray.
Place all rub ingredients into the mixing bowl and combine 5 sec/speed 5. Pour into a small bowl.
Rub the spice mix onto both sides of each rib rack and place onto the baking rack, meaty side up.
Place a sheet of baking paper over the ribs and then cover tightly with foil and refrigerate for 2½ hours (or overnight). Allow ribs to cool to room temperature (approx. 30 minutes) before cooking.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 1¼ hours. While ribs are baking prepare BBQ bourbon glaze.
Place onion, garlic and ginger into mixing bowl and chop 5 sec/speed 7.
Add oil and sauté for 5 min/100°C/speed 1.
Add all remaining ingredients and cook 30 min/100°C/speed 1.
Blend 20 sec/speed 1—9, slowly increasing speed from speed 1 to speed 9. Set aside in a bowl to cool.
After 1¼ hours, remove ribs from the oven and brush with a thick coating of the bourbon glaze. Re-cover with foil and then cook for a further 15 minutes until glaze has caramelised.
Remove ribs from oven, brush again with the glaze and cut into individual ribs (they are easier to eat this way).
Return to a low heat on a BBQ hotplate or under a low grill, occasionally basting with the glaze until ribs are slightly charred. If using the BBQ—line your plate with a little baking paper to prevent a gooey mess, it works better than foil and doesn’t tear. Do not use baking paper under the grill however as it will burn.

Delicious! I used this recipe for beef ribs and they were perfect. I slow cooked the beef with the rub in my slow cooker first for 6 hours on low and then transferred to a baking dish with the BBQ glaze for 1 hour, perfect.
I used brandy as I didn't have bourbon but I'm going to buy a bottle especially as I can imagine it would be even nicer. I also used 1/2 barbecue sauce, 1/2 tomato sauce as I didn't have enough tomato sauce. It was still fine if not a bit richer perhaps but as I was using it with beef totally acceptable. Thank you for a great recipe that I will be using with pork ribs and chicken wings in the future.

An overwhelming success.
Followed instructions to the letter, and came out successfully. I added some Tabasco sauce to the glaze for some extra zing.
Easy to make, delicious to taste.
WOW!! Amazing!! I didn’t have all the ingredients for the rub, didn’t matter, still delicious. I slow cooked the ribs wrapped in foil with the rub then put in oven with sauce. Meat fell off the bone. Will definitely be a regular meal from now on
Definately do again and again.

Do i leave the foil on or take it off before cooking?
YUM!!! This recipe is a real crowd pleaser finger licking good
s1968as: Thanks for the suggestion - I tried this out today and works much better. I’ll amend the recipe 😊
What a Rippa dish, Hubby was super impressed! I used 1kg of pork ribs and halved the rub ingredients I made the glaze as stated or added sauce and to freeze the rest for another time. Thankyou for this great recipe 😊
Simply amazing, lots of flavour! - I did get a little confused if i was to cooked the ribs in foil or not. I did cook the in foil in the end and they were so tender! Huge hit with my husband and Dad - will cook again.
