Cowboy Ribs

Submitted by silly sally

"These ribs are oven-roasted. Select meaty, country-style ribs, back ribs cut from the blade and center section of the pork loin, or boneless ribs. Keep side dishes simple - grilled veggies, potato salad or coleslaw. A good rule of thumb is: Ribs are ready to eat when meat wiggles from bone. Recipe comes from a page ripped out of Grit magazine, back in 1994."

i just made the ribs and wow i think they ate the bones, but i had 2 slabs on stacked so half way i rotated them, i think i should of broiled them longer but we couldnt take it no more, i dumped the juice over the ribs like a dip and that set it off, thank u 4 recipe!!!!!! now the family expects this every nite

Good way to cook ribs, but I didn't like the sauce at all. It was bitter. I ended up using ordinary barbeque sauce over this sauce. The baking method does work well.

I had reviewed this about a month ago, but I guess it didn't "stick". But I haven't forgotten this remarkable taste sensation, in fact; I have made the sauce more the 5 times now since I first made the *Cowboy Ribs*. The ribs are so succulent, and ready to fall off the bone.....the sauce ingredients are right on, I did not change one thing about any part of the recipe. I supposed you could tinker around with this, however; this is so great...I guarantee you won't need to. Perfectly wonderful my dear Silly Sally! Made for *PAC* April 2008.
