  1. I liked this, but my child did not. I think he may not like the allspice. I didn't bother to make the sauce. I couldn't cut through the thick end to separate the ribs. It was still fantastic. There are not many baked ribs recipes that I truly enjoy but this one is awesome.
     
  2. These ribs are just delicious! They were fall apart tender and rich and flavorful from the sauce. Thanks! Made this for ZWT4 for the Chic Chefs
     
  3. I used 1 1/2 lb pork ribs with 1/2 of other ingredients and they came out very tasty. Used olive oil in place of shortening and did not follow step 8 for making gravy as my dish was quite thick without the addition of flour roux. The meat was certainly done and very tender by 1 1/2 hours baking at 350 degrees. I also added cut up potatoes 30 minutes before time was up. The only change I will make next time is adding more onion and garlic to the recipe since we love them. I think this recipe will work very well with beef brisket as well. Thank you Celticevergreen for posting this wonderful recipe.
