I just made these ribs for dinner tonight and they were delicious. Noting that an earlier review mentioned had wished the sauce flavored the ribs more. Here is how I solved that. Since I was using 2 x's the amount of ribs. I knew I would need 2 x's the sauce. First, I marinated them over night with salt, pepper and garlic powder. In the morning, I made up one batch of the sauce and marinated the ribs in it for around 8 hours. Before I cooked the ribs, I made a second batch of sauce. I did not brown the ribs before putting them in the oven. I did spread the sauce on them and baked them for the 45 minutes as mentioned above. Instead of putting them back in the oven. I noticed that they were cooked thru. I took the remaining sauce and then browned the ribs on my grill.

I've never made such easy and delicious ribs. I mixed some extra sauce with some olive oil and lime juice to make a great complimentary salad dressing.

Wonderful flavor and easy to do. Even though I only had two lbs. of meat, I made the entire sauce and we had extra on the side. Served with Recipe #33489 and Recipe #28551.

Great on ribs and pork! I made some up and used it on pork chops on top of the stove. Let the chops sit in the sauce until it thickened up. Deeelicious!
