These sticky ribs are seriously messy, so have finger bowls and loads of napkins on hand, they're also excellent served with thinly sliced fried potatoes.

Notes
Short ribs, although they're not necessarily that short, are sections of beef ribs, not pork, usually taken from the second to the 10th rib. Each `slab' can contain from 2 to 8 ribs. The meat is full of flavour, but is very tough, so the ribs are best braised slowly over low heat, making them perfect for cooking in a slow cooker.
