Oven-Roasted Ribs

Ingredients:

• 1 rack of ribs
• 1 cup beef stock
• 1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 cup soy sauce
• 2 cups water
• 2 TBS minced garlic
• 1/2-3/4 cup rib rub

Directions:

1. Prepare ribs by trimming if needed, and generous seasoning with dry rib rub.
2. In an oven roasting pan with a rack: combine beef stock, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, water and minced garlic.
3. Insert rack into the roasting pan, and set seasoned ribs on rack.
4. Cover entire pan with foil.
5. Bake in a 250 degree F oven for 4-4 1/2 hours, or until a meat thermometer measures the internal temperature to be no less than 160 degrees F.
6. After removing the ribs from the oven, allow them to rest for at least 10 minutes before cutting and serving.

Hint: We meant to cook these on the grill, but as it turned on we were out of gas for our grill. This was a great alternative and the meat was very juicy and tender. If desired, a small amount of liquid smoke could also be added to the liquids in the bottle of the roasting pan for flavor. Enjoy!

BBQ'd Country Style Ribs

I got a text this morning that said, "You like to cook. I've got some ribs...any suggestions?"

Yes!

We tried this out a couple of weeks ago and it was a really good variation on the same ole same ole we usually have with country style ribs.



BBQ'd Country Style Ribs:

up to 4.5 or 5 lbs. boneless country-style pork ribs
1 1/2 cups bottled BBQ sauce
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
2 TBS yellow mustard
1 TBS packed brown sugar
1 TBS Worcestershire sauce
2 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp dried Thyme

**using a blender, mix BBQ sauce - onion - (celery) - mustard - brown sugar - worchestershire sauce - garlic & thyme**

place ribs in crock-pot, cover with sauce from blender....cook on low 8-10 hours or high 5-6 hours

-> we had a communication error so the celery didn't make it to the blender, instead we put it in on top of the sauce
