Method

  1. Step 1

    Preheat a covered barbecue on low. (Alternatively, preheat oven to 150°C.) Place ribs in a shallow roasting pan. Combine cumin, paprika, salt, mustard powder, if using, fennel and pepper in a bowl. Sprinkle over both sides of ribs.

  2. Step 2

    Cover pan with foil. Roast in covered barbecue using indirect heat, or in oven, for 3 hours or until ribs are very tender.

  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, to make the Texan-style barbecue sauce, combine the tomato sauce, sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard and paprika in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, for 5 mins or until sauce boils and thickens slightly.

  4. Step 4

    Uncover the ribs and brush evenly with the barbecue sauce. Roast, brushing with any extra sauce occasionally, for 30 mins or until ribs are sticky and falling off the bone.
