Method

1. Remove ribs from fridge 20 minutes before cooking. Preheat the oven to 160°C fan-forced.
2. Combine all the dry rub ingredients, mixing well. Lather the pork ribs in american mustard, this will act as the “glue” for the rub.
3. Evenly and liberally sprinkle the rub mix over the ribs, on a large baking sheet or tray, lay out foil and individually wrap each rack of ribs sharing the apple juice evenly between each rack. Seal and place in oven for 2 hours.
4. While the ribs are cooking, in a medium saucepan bring together the glaze over a low heat. Add all ingredients, reserving 2 tbs of bourbon. Mix together well to combine and bring to a very gentle simmer and then turn off the heat and set aside for later.
5. Once the ribs have been in the oven for 2 hours, carefully remove from the foil (watch for steam), discard foil and place back on the oven tray coating well with half the glaze. Increase oven to 200°C fan-forced and place ribs back into oven uncovered for 10–15 minutes or until caramelised. Remove from oven and pour over the remaining glaze, cut into sharing portions, garnish with fresh lemon wedges and enjoy.
