- Ready In:

- 11
- Serves:
-
4-6
ingredients
- 4 lbs pork ribs
- 1 -2 tablespoon celery salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups orange juice
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime peel, finely shredded
- 1 teaspoon lemon peel, finely shredded
- 1 tablespoon of fresh mint, snipped
directions
- Place ribs in a large roasting pan (DO NOT cut into smaller pieces; I use a large jelly roll pan with a large metal cooling rack on top).
- Sprinkle with celery salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake for approximately 3 hours at 275 degrees until tender. Try against all temptation not to peek!
- Meanwhile, for the sauce, combine the cornstarch, brown sugar and salt. Stir in the lime juice and orange juice, cook and stir over medium heat until thick.
- Remove from heat and stir in the mint and lemon and lime peel.
- Remove ribs from oven and brush with some of the sauce.
- Finally move ribs to the grill to finish cooking and give them that wonderful "I've been grilled all day long" color. Cook for about 10 minutes on each side over an open grill at medium heat.
- Baste several times with the citrus sauce while grilling.

<p>I live in a suburb of Des Moines with my wonderful husband, two children, a Boxer and a neurotic Golden Retriever. Every day I am reminded of how blessed I am when I have one of the five of them gazing at me longingly wanting something I have just cooked! <br />It was my DH that taught me how to cook when we first got married (I think he was tired of my mantra If it can't be cooked in a toaster <br />or a microwave in 60 seconds or less - I'm not making it!) <br />I turned out to be an eager student and he was a VERY patient teacher. Little did he know that for the next 13 years he was going to have to put up with endless nights of Food Network, cookbooks spilling out of every bookcase, and me chasing him through the house trying to stick a fork or spoon in his mouth saying Here - try this!. <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></p>
