BBQ pork ribs with mango bourbon BBQ sauce

Jump to recipe

Fall off the bone, sticky ribs are a perfect meal for a summer evening. While they are time-consuming, the process isn’t by any stretch arduous. There are a few steps, and this dish includes recipes with recipes, but you can substitute with store-bought sauces and rubs where it makes sense to your taste and time commitments.

I like to build all the components of the dish in a way so as to pull themes and flavours together to make one, harmoniously glorious dish.

I always enjoy BBQ ribs served with coleslaw and either baked or roasted potatoes.

• Preparation time: 1-3 hours, although you could let the rub sit on the ribs overnight.

• Cooking time: 3.5-4 hours, depending on the size of your ribs.
