BBQ Sauce
Add all ingredients for the BBQ sauce into a saucepan and simmer over charcoal until well combined. Place aside until needed.
Pork Ribs
1. Clean and pat dry raw pork rib racks. Then remove the membrane from the back of the ribs.
2. Generously apply olive oil over both sides of the ribs and generously coat with Butchers Axe Ranger seasoning.
3. Prepare charcoal using a chimney (start with 1 chimney full) and set up BBQ for indirect cooking (approx 110C). Place the pork ribs opposite to the charcoal.
4. Allow the ribs to cook low and slow for 2 hours. During the cook spritz with apple juice every 20 minutes.
5. Brush the ribs with BBQ sauce for the final 45 minutes to 1 hour. Wrap each rib rack tightly with foil.
6. Continue to cook the ribs until the internal temperature reaches 204f (95c).
Grilled Potato Salad
1. Rinse potatoes in cold water and slice in half leaving the skin on. In a saucepan, parboil for around 8 mins or until slightly softened. Rinse and pat dry.
2. In a bowl, add all ingredients and combine well. Allow to marinate for 15 mins. Then remove the potatoes from the marinade and cook them directly on the grill grate for around 4 mins a side. Sprinkle additional semi dried parsley for presentation.
Fried Prawn Wontons
1. Soak mushrooms in hot water for 10 mins. Then drain the water.
2. Add all ingredients to a food processor, chop and combine well.
3. Place 1 tsp of mixture in the centre of each wonton wrapper. Then twist the top to form a pouch.
4. Fry wontons in batches for 2-3 mins or until golden.
