Oven-Baked Maple Barbecued Ribs

Kittencalskitchen's Note:

I love cooking and baking with maple syrup and have collected many different recipes using maple syrup over the years, if you have any maple syrup around then this is a rib recipe you should not pass up! The sauce recipe may be easily doubled. Prep time includes the first baking of the ribs.

6. Cut ribs into serving-size pieces; return to pan (meat side up).

Yum! I loved the sticky foody smell this makes while it cooks. It's finger licking good. I did line my pan with foil for easy clean up. This is a keeper. Thanks for posting. :)

These were outstanding ribs. We enjoyed them very much. The meat was so tender it fell off the bone, the sauce was delicious, sweet, tart and tangy with a lovely crispness from the onions and sesame seeds. I will definitely be making these again.

I made this recipe for the ZWTII. These were delicious and they just fell off the bone!
