Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Most of us have all the bottles we need to knock up a barbecue marinade. You can adapt it according to what you have to hand, though tomato ketchup makes the best base and I'm sure we all have a bottle of that lurking around. You can either cut up the ribs before you marinate and cook them or leave them whole if you like getting messy when you eat. Children will probably prefer the excuse to make a mess.
1.2kg pork ribs
6tbsp tomato ketchup
2tbsp HP Sauce
1tbsp sweet chilli sauce
1tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2tbsp soy sauce
1tsp Chinese five spice
2 cloves of garlic, peeled and crushed
100ml orange juice
Put the pork ribs into a non-reactive tray, mix all the ingredients together and pour the marinade over. Cover with clingfilm and leave in the fridge for at least 24 hours.
Pre-heat the oven to 175C/gas mark 4. Transfer the ribs to a roasting or baking tray and cook for 2 hours, basting and turning them every so often. You may need to add a little water if the marinade dries up.
Serve with a salad, coleslaw and maybe some potato wedges cooked in the oven.
