I'm with snappingfish - it's a no brainer can't fail recipe that is delicious. That's all I need! I also cooked it in a big cast iron skillet with a lid. I used pork country style ribs. I used smoked paprika instead of regular and montreal steak seasoning instead of season salt. Also, baked them for 1 hour with no sauce, then drained off the fat and added sauce and onions. Awesome.

HEY...Y'all...don't be so tight with those stars! This is a can-do for everyone, and it tastes great! Its against some rules to cook meat IN a BBQ sauce, but for the sake of being lazy, I would accept it here! I'm from the south, and I will tell you that this dish would pass at any place I've eaten! The one trick I employed, was to start with a cast iron deep frypan. Browned it, added the stuff, and baked it all in the one pan. Came out perfect!

If there were more stars I would give this delicious recipe more. I'm from the old school and get up early on Sunday morning to prepare dinner to be ready when getting home from church. Prep time about 30 minutes. I left out the garlic, and used honey in place of the molasses. This was the first sauce recipe I truly loved and will make in the future. I slow cooked on 300 degrees for 4hrs. The results were outstanding. My husband is not a big eater but he had seconds on this. Will definitely repeat in the future.

Delicious! And so easy to make. We had this instead of our Sunday roast and the house smelled SO amazing! We were both starving by the time they were done. Great tasting sauce and beautifully tender beef. Served with some mash and carrots and we loved this!
