Notes

Pre-cooking ribs before braaing is a game changer for achieving tender, fall-off-the-bone meat. This cut benefits from slow cooking, which helps render the fat and soften the meat, but maintaining an even heat on the braai for extended periods can be challenging. By precooking the ribs, you ensure they are tender before finishing them on the braai, which allows for a beautiful char and caramelisation. The results are ribs that are succulent and full of flavour.
