Sticky marmalade ribs recipe

Sweet, sticky ribs are always a winner when feeding a crowd, and these marmalade-glazed ones would work just as well for a summer barbecue or a Bonfire Night feast. Tender and meaty, the ribs can also be cooked in the oven if the weather's not on your side. See method

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 5, 190°C, fan 170°C. Put the ribs in a large roasting tray, drizzle with a little oil and season. Add the orange juice to the tin and cover tightly with foil. Roast for 1½ - 2 hrs, turning the ribs over after 1 hr, until the meat is really tender between the bones.
  2. Meanwhile, mix all of the glaze ingredients in a small pan. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer gently for 3 mins. Set aside. Preheat the barbecue, if using.
  3. Brush the ribs with a third of the glaze and barbecue for for 10-12 mins, turning regularly and basting with more glaze, until charred and sticky. Alternatively, to finish in the oven, increase the temperature to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Brush the ribs with a third of the glaze. Roast for 10-15 mins, until charred and sticky, then turn and brush with a little more glaze. Roast for a further 10-15 mins.
  4. Transfer to a chopping board, scatter with the spring onion and orange zest, then slice apart and serve with the remaining glaze.
