BBQ pork ribs

This is the most delicious pork ribs I know. Husband and Dad love pork ribs and it was a meal they used to buy when we went out for dinner. I was in Canada a few years ago visiting family and they served this. Needless to say I asked for the recipe. I now make a big batch and freeze for quick dinners - the meat is boiled then marinated so all that needs to be done is heated through in the BBQ or in the pan.

In a very large pot place:

                                    2 chopped carrots

                                    2 large onions cut in half

                                    1 bulb of garlic, inpeeled but cut in half

                                    4  bay leaves

                                    Some peppercorns

                                    2 celery stalks, chopped

Fill with water to approximately the level  that would cover the ribs if they were in the pot. Boil for about 30 minutes, then add the ribs, cover and simmer for  1 hour. Let the ribs cool at room temperature in a flat pan covered with the sauce.

Sauce:

In Thermomix add some ketchup, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, rice wine vinegar and red pepper flakes –  the sauce should be more brown than red. Heat the mixture on Speed 1/90 degrees/2 minutes or until the sauce bubbles.  Add 2 tablespoons of brown sugar and stir until dissolved. Cook on Speed 1/50 degrees/ 5 minutes.
