Spicy Honey Spareribs

I love the sweet and spicy flavours of this Asian-inspired marinade. If you don't have pork it's just as good with beef short ribs or chicken drumsticks.

OMGoodness , my 5 boys aged from 14 down to 5 have just absolutely LOVED this recipe!! They were fighting over the last rib!! I reduced the chilli a little to make it more little boy friendly but it didn’t diminish the flavours at all..awesome Annabel!

I love the way you used fresh ingredients when you cook. I promote natural technology to my farm an ranch environment. As an example I used wildflowers to cut on my co2 gases from livestock.
