BBQ pork ribs recipe

This isn't exactly a recipe, and it needn't be cooked in the BBQ.

It is more a reminder to me what I did as they came out very well.

Enough pork ribs for 2 people
200 ml apple juice
BBQ sauce (a 'squirt or two')
BBQ rub made from salt, cumin, paprika, salt, thyme, ginger, cinnamon and any other spices you chose and some sugar (about 2 tablespoons full)

Make a 'bubble' out of foil so that the ribs can sit in the foil in a baking tray and you can add some liquid without it escaping from round the ribs.
Add the ribs and the apple juice and a bit of salt to the foil and wrap it up so the ribs are contained in the foil with the juice and it is reasonably airtight, but the steam can escape a little.
Put on the BBQ or in the oven at something like 110 degrees C so that it just boils but isn't frazzled.
Cook for about an hour.
Carefully open the foil bubble and rub the spice/sugar mixture into the ribs and rewrap. Cook for a further 30 mins.
Remove the foil and add the BBQ sauce (you don't have to use BBQ sauce, but it generally adds some smoky more complex flavour). Now the ribs are in a baking tray. Cook for something like another further 30 mins on a hotter setting until the sauce is reduced to a thickish consistency.

Ready to eat

Not much left as sooooo delicious. We ate with bread and salad.
