Method

  1. Preparation: rinse the ribs under cold water, pat dry with paper towels, rub with salt, paprika, and dried garlic. Cut into portions and place in a heatproof dish about 30×40 cm. Cover the dish with foil and preheat the oven to 160 °C.

  2. Cooking under foil: bake covered at low heat for 2 hours, until the meat is tender and nearly separating from the bone.

  3. Sauce: in a small bowl mix ketchup, honey, mustard and soy sauce until smooth.

  4. Glazing and final bake: uncover the foil, brush the ribs with the sauce and return to the oven without a lid. Increase the temperature to 220 °C and bake 15 minutes until a sticky crust forms.

  5. Coleslaw: wash the cabbage, peel and trim the carrot10.

  6. Slice the cabbage into fine shreds and the carrot10 into thin strips.

  7. Combine the shredded cabbage and carrot10 in a bowl, add mayonnaise and a pinch of salt, mix until evenly distributed.

  8. Serving: let the ribs rest for 5 minutes, cut along the bones and serve with coleslaw.

Tips

Why it works
Pat ribs dry before seasoning so salt sticks to the meat instead of dissolving into water. Wet ribs will taste bland and stick to foil.
Substitutions
Replace honey with brown sugar (15g) for a deeper caramel flavor; swap dried garlic for 1 fresh clove minced finely.
Common mistakes
Overcooking ribs in the final step turns the sauce bitter and the meat dry. Check when the crust is glossy, not blackened.
Storing and reheating
Eat fresh or within 2 days. Reheat ribs at 180°C for 10 minutes covered with foil; coleslaw keeps 3 days but tastes best fresh.
Serve with
Pair with crusty bread to soak up the sauce. Use for a casual dinner with friends or a family weekend meal.

In short

  • In the planner this dish is cooked for two days: reheat on day two.
