Number Of Ingredients 9

12 spareribs
12 chicken thighs, with skin and bones
1 cup apple juice, as sharp as possible
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 star anise

Steps:

Put the ribs and chicken pieces in a couple of large freezer bags or into a dish.
Add all the remaining ingredients, squelching everything together well before sealing the bag or covering the dish.
Leave to marinate in the refrigerator overnight or up to 2 days.
Take the dish out of the refrigerator and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Pour the contents of the freezer bag into 1 or 2 large roasting trays (making sure the chicken is skin side up) and place in the preheated oven and cook for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, by which time everything should be sticky and glossy brown.
