Barbecue Ribs Satay Style

This easy Satay sauce recipe for barbecue ribs is straight out of the Orient but with readily available ingredients that make it a simple and practical barbecue grill theme. So lets light the charcoal!

Our Asian friends look on barbecue spare ribs more like we look at a chop and for this reason they love them and are the masters at cooking them. They’re also extremely adept at eating them without too much mess – this is a skill I still have to master.

Work on about 1.5kg (3.3lb) of ribs.

Ingredients:-

Batch 1

50g 2oz roasted salted peanuts
2 tbs of groundnut oil
3 shallots thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves finely chopped
2 red chillies, seeded (or not) depending on how you like it!)
2 teaspoons ground coriander

Batch 2

50g 2oz crunchy peanut butter
175ml canned coconut milk
75ml or 3 fl oz water
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Method:-Throw all of Batch 1 together in a frying pan for 2-3 minutes until soft and then throw in Batch 2. Stir until evenly mixed.

You can then simply pour it onto your barbecue pork ribs or coat your meat before cooking. Slap the ribs on the BBQ for 60 minutes per pound at 225°F

TIP - When cooking ribs it’s always better to cook them as one big rib rather than individual ribs because they stay more succulent and they’re also easier to turn on the BBQ.
