Ingredients:

    Ribs

  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp paprika
  • 2 tablespoons coarse salt
  • 2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • Juice of 2 oranges
  • 2 layers of pork ribs (from the loin), cut into pieces with 2 bones

    Relish (fruit and vegetable caviar)

  • 1.5 cups fresh pineapple, diced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tbsp. honey
  • 0.5 tsp chili powder
  • A pinch of coarse salt
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded and diced
  • 1 small red onion, diced
  • Zest and juice of 1 lime

Preparation:

  1. Preheat oven to 160°C.
  2. Ribs:

    In a large bowl, combine brown sugar, paprika, salt, cayenne pepper, black pepper, garlic, and orange juice. Add the pork ribs and toss to coat.
  3. Cut a sheet of aluminum foil 18 inches wide and 24 inches long and place it on a baking sheet. Place the ribs on the foil along with any juices from the bowl. Wrap the ribs tightly in the foil. Bake until very tender, about 2 hours.
  4. Relish:

    Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the pineapple, cilantro, honey, chili powder, salt, jalapeño, red onion, lime zest and juice and toss to combine. Set aside.
  5. Remove the ribs from the oven and set the oven to broil. Carefully unwrap the foil. Arrange the ribs, meaty side up, under the broiler. Grill for about 5 minutes. Transfer the ribs to a platter or board, top with cold pineapple sauce, and serve.
