Product is frozen at source and not suitable for re freezing*
Bring the ribs to room temperature (30–60 minutes out of the fridge) for even cooking.
Pat dry thoroughly and season generously with sea salt, black pepper, and your favourite dry rub (simple salt & pepper or BBQ spice blend).
For low-and-slow smoking: Preheat smoker to 110–135°C (225–275°F) with mild woods (apple, cherry, hickory). Smoke bone-side down for 3–5 hours (or until probe-tender ~90–93°C internal and meat pulls back from bones), wrapping in foil/butcher paper halfway if desired for extra tenderness. Glaze in the final hour for sticky finish.
For oven braising: Preheat oven to 150–160°C (fan 130–140°C / Gas 2). Place on foil-lined tray (bone-side down), cover tightly, bake 2–3 hours until fork-tender. Uncover, brush with sauce, and broil/grill 5–10 minutes for caramelised finish.
Rest loosely covered 10–15 minutes, this lets juices settle for maximum succulence.
Serve as individual ribs or cut into portions. ·
If frozen, thaw slowly in the fridge first, see our freezing and defrosting guide.
Serve simply to highlight the tender, porky richness and natural flavour, or glaze with BBQ sauce/honey glaze in the final stage for sticky shine; pair with classic sides like coleslaw, pickles, cornbread, baked beans, rice, or grilled vegetables for the ultimate rib experience.
