Cajun Party Ribs

Submitted by Rocki

"This recipe is a family favorite at all of our family get-togethers. The marinade also doubles as the sauce, (a sort of tangy, teriyaki flavored sauce). Even when I triple this recipe there is NEVER enough. Make sure you have the butcher cut each rack of ribs across the bone (horizontally)."
