Hope the year so far is going well for everyone.
We had the usual cold/cough/fever cycles but it was not too bad. We weathered it with a quick trip to Disneyland, one to the theater for The Princess And The Frog and watching Iron Chef episodes galore at home. Santa's visit was a success as expected and now we are all back on the hamster wheel.
Today's recipe is not of the ribs that came from Adam for Eve, but the pork rib appetizers that my husband prepares occasionally. They can pass for dinner when accompanied by rolls or artisan bread or any other carb of your choice. H has developed a surefire method that yields the same delicious results every time. So please follow the steps exactly even if it is not that exact or else....
Kids and adults love this alike and each time we make this for a party they vanish in seconds. So he makes it just for us once in a while.
In The Mix
pork baby back ribs - 2 lbs (mostly from Costco)
Bull's Eye BBQ Sauce Original - as needed to coverall the meat (we love this particular brand)
freshly ground black pepper - to taste (start with 1 tbsp)
salt - to taste
How To Do
Cover meat with pepper and salt and marinate in refrigerator for 2-3 hours.
Now take out the meat, spread BBQ sauce, cover in an aluminum foil and marinate for 4 hours cold.
Take out and add more sauce, cover and marinate cold overnight.
Optionally put the whole thing in a sealable food grade bag to get better results. It tastes great even if you don't do this part.
Preheat oven to 350C.
Fill a medium oven safe pan with water and place all the way at the bottom of the oven.
Place marinated ribs on regular cooling racks and keep on top rack of the oven.
Place cookie sheets covered with aluminum foil under the rib racks to catch drips if any.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or till cooked.
Take out and let cool for 5 minutes. Slice gently following the rib lines and bite into tender juicy meat for hours of satisfaction! Ketchup is an easy dip for this.Finger lick cleaning is allowed during a satisfying session:-)

AWESOME.......Lan this is like manna...........seriously I had water in my mouth by the time I read till the bottom of the post.
I've been toying with the same idea for sometime now but havent mustered up the courage. U've explained it very well, thank U:-))!!!
p.s: Except that I dont think we get Bulls eye BBQ sauce here :-(
Almost forgot to wish U.....
Disneyland must have been lots of fun & Princess & the frog sounds like something my kids wd have enjoyed.
And not the least, do convey my compliments to the Chef;-D
i am glad i got this out at the right time then nancy. hope u will make it and like it. baby back ribs marinated this way cannot go wrong. The water pan under the oven will keep the meat tender and juicy. BBQ sauce is a big part of the taste but any BBQ sauce that you like should work. Mixing with hot chili sauce might help too in this case. princess and the frog was enjoyed by the 4 of us including the reluctant Chef since the theme was rather universal. do watch it...
U've been awarded:-)!!!!
it is an honor. thanks nance!
Mouthwateringly good.
I sound like a parrot but I do wish we were neighbors.
Geeta, I do wish it too. I am on my second attempt to make those royal eggplants. Will post it once I do.
