Instructions
  1. The Superbowl is upon us, and these magnificent fall-off-the-bone baby back ribs are the star attraction. The ribs are slow-roasted, but despite the extended cooking time, there really is very little prep time and effort required to enjoy this masterpiece.
  2. You will need 3 to 4 full racks of pork loin ribs, otherwise known as baby back ribs.
  3. Place the racks in a baking pan and season both sides of the ribs liberally with salt and pepper.
  4. Cover the pan with foil, making sure the ribs are meaty-side up.
  5. Bake the ribs in a preheated oven at 135c or 275f for 3.5 hours until absolutely tender.
  6. A half hour before the baking time is up, measure out 30ml olive oil, chop a half cup of onion, measure a teaspoon of ground cumin, 125ml tomato sauce, 15ml hot chilli sauce, 30ml light brown sugar and 15ml apple cider vinegar.
  7. Place a pan over medium heat and saute the chopped onion in the olive oil until translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  8. Add the cumin and stir this until fragrant.
  9. Add all of the remaining ingredients and stir to combine.
  10. Allow this to cook for 2 to 3 minutes then remove from the heat and put it aside.
  11. Remove the ribs from the oven and preheat the grill element of your oven to maximum.
  12. Uncover the ribs and brush the basting liberally onto both sides of the racks. Be careful when turning them as they will literally fall apart.
  13. Place the ribs under the grill for 4 to 5 minutes to caramelize.
  14. Remove the ribs from the oven and serve piping hot with the accompaniments of your choice, and loads of serviettes.
