4. Place the ribs on a lined baking tray or roasting pan and cover tightly with foil.
5. Roast for 2–2½ hours, until the meat is tender.
6. While the ribs cook, combine all the glaze ingredients in a saucepan and simmer for 5–7 minutes until slightly thickened.
7. Remove the foil and brush the ribs generously with the Sticky Yanky BBQ Glaze.
8. Return to the oven uncovered for 20–30 minutes, basting every 10 minutes, until the glaze is sticky, caramelised and glossy.
