- 1clovegarlic, minced
-
Spice Rub
- 1cupbrown sugar
- 1/2cuppaprika
- 2 1/2tablespoonsground black pepper
- 2 1/2tablespoonssalt(I prefer kosher)
- 1 1/2tablespoonschili powder
- 1 1/2tablespoonsgarlic powder
- 1 1/2tablespoonsonion powder
- 1-2teaspooncayenne
- 3pork spare rib racks(3 pounds or less each)
- 1canlager beer (optional)
DIRECTIONS
- At least the night before you make the ribs, if not earlier, combine the BBQ sauce ingredients in a saucepan.
- Simmer over medium low heat for 1/2 an hour.
- Chill overnight (keeps several months in the refrigerator).
- The night before you make the ribs, combine the spice rub ingredients in a bowl, and mix together well.
- Pat about 1/3 of the total spice rub on the top and bottom of the rib slabs.
- Allow to sit, refrigerated, overnight.
- The next day, about 5 hours before dinner, take the ribs out of the fridge, sprinkle top and bottom with about half of the remaining spice rub.
- Let sit at room temperature for 45 minutes.
- Take BBQ sauce out of refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature.
- Heat oven to 200- 225 degrees Fahrenheit.
- After the ribs sit at room temperature, put them in the oven on a large sheet tray, or indeed several large sheet trays if needed.
- Bake 4 hours.
- If the ribs start to look dry, baste them with a little beer.
- About halfway through cooking time, sprinkle ribs with the rest of the spice rub.
- about 45 minutes before ribs are done, brush with a fairly liberal amount of the BBQ sauce.
- Once ribs are done, baste them with more sauce, if you like.
- Let ribs sit 10 minutes before cutting into individual ribs, or 1/2 slabs, as I prefer.
- Serve with plenty of extra sauce on the side, and plenty of napkins.

INGREDIENTS
- 125gbutter
- 1cupsugar
- 1egg
- 1cupflour
- 1/2cupcoconut
- 1/2teaspoonbaking powder
- 1tablespooncocoa powder
-
Topping
- 1/2cupcoconut
- 2tablespoonsbutter(30 grams)
- 1tablespooncocoa powder
- 1cupicing sugar(or as preferred..see below)
DIRECTIONS
- Cream the butter and sugar.
- Add the egg.
- Add the dry ingredients.
- Bake in a sponge roll tin(approx 25cm x 40cm) for 20 minutes at 190 C (375 degrees Fahrenheit).
- While still hot, ice with topping mixture.
- The amount of icing sugar often seems to depend on the humidity of the season –but also who in our household is making it. Some of us like a thicker layer of icing than others! You need just enough to make it nice and spreadable.:).
- Note: My sponge roll tin is a very very old one from my Grandmother. It seems a funny size compared with my other metric sized ones. It doesn’t really matter if your baking pan is a little bigger or smaller, everything should still turn out fine.:).
