When it comes to Bonfire Night, what's almost as important as the fireworks and blazing bonfire is the food you and the family enjoy!

Lucky for us, Phillip has his own recipe for some lip-smacking BBQ ribs that you can prepare at home, ready for when you go out to light the sparklers.

Bonfire BBQ ribs

Serves: 4-6

Ingredients

2 racks pork spare ribs

For the dry spice rub

(Please note this makes a large quantity of rub so you may like to store extra in an airtight jar)

4 tbsp dark brown sugar

5 tbsp salt

1 tbsp ground ginger

5 tbsp ground black pepper

2 tbsp paprika

1 tsp chilli powder

2 tbsp ground cumin

2 tbsp ground coriander

For the sauce

240ml tomato sauce

2 tbsp Dijon mustard

50ml orange juice

5 tbsp cider vinegar

1 tsp liquid smoke

Method

Take a bowl and mix together all the ingredients for the dry spice rub
Rub the dry spice mix into the rack (s) of pork ribs
Preheat the oven to 100c and slowly cook the ribs in the oven for about 3 hours
For the sauce: mix the ingredients together in a small bowl and put to one side
Remove the ribs from the oven and then flash the ribs on the barbecue to crisp further. Coat the ribs in the sauce and serve, putting the remaining sauce into a jug.
