Method

BBQ Pork Ribs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ribs

    Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F). Remove the silver skin from the back of the ribs and pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Ribs

    In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Rub this mixture all over the ribs, ensuring they are well coated.

  3. 3

    Cook the Ribs

    Place the seasoned ribs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil, cover with another piece of foil, and bake for 2.5 to 3 hours.

  4. 4

    Add BBQ Sauce

    After baking, remove the ribs from the oven and discard the top layer of foil. Brush BBQ sauce generously over the ribs and return them to the oven, uncovered, for an additional 30 minutes.

  5. 5

    Finish the Ribs

    Remove the ribs from the oven, let them rest for 10 minutes, then slice and serve.

Cornbread

  1. 6

    Preheat and Mix Dry Ingredients

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). In a bowl, mix together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

  2. 7

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter until well combined.

  3. 8

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

  4. 9

    Bake the Cornbread

    Pour the batter into a greased baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

  5. 10

    Serve

    Allow the cornbread to cool for a few minutes, then cut into squares and serve with the BBQ ribs.
