Ingredients

Stout beer

1 cup(s), (250ml)

Tomato paste

1 tbs

Whole grain mustard

1 tbs

Brown sugar

3 tsp

Smoked paprika

1 tsp

Dried chilli flakes

1 tsp

Instructions

  1. Combine stout, tomato paste, mustard, sugar, paprika, chilli and garlic in a jug. Mix well.
  2. Place ribs in a large flameproof baking dish. Brush marinade over ribs. Pour over remaining marinade. Cover and place in fridge overnight.
  3. Preheat oven to 160°C or 140°C fan-forced. Add capsicum and onion to baking dish with ribs and spoon some marinade over vegetables. Cover with foil and bake, turning halfway through cooking, for 1 hour 30 minutes.
  4. Increase oven to 220°C or 200°C fan-forced. Place a wire rack over a baking tray. Transfer ribs to rack. Combine ¼ cup (60ml) cooking liquid in a small bowl with barbecue sauce. Brush mixture over ribs and bake for 20 minutes or until ribs have browned.
