Lemonade Barbecued Country Ribs

Submitted by Kendra*

"This is another one of my "tried and true" recipes that I've been making for years. The lemonade adds a very tangy note to the sweet sauce. Although I've always made the ribs in the oven, I'm sure they could be finished on a grill. I usually serve with baked potatoes and a vegetable. Country ribs are meatier than baby back ribs, and I really like to use boneless country ribs for this recipe."
