Simply Cookbooks

Some of you may already know this, but I am a late bloomer.

Ribs of any sort have never been a real favorite in our house. Mainly because I did them as my mother did thinking that was the only way to cook them. And I gotta tell ya..Mom was a good cook, but her ribs were fatty, overcooked, and dry even with sauce on them.

Recently I have experimented with a different way to cook them that I saw on a Food Network show called “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives”. These are awesome and nothing like Moms (thank goodness).

Heat your oven to around 225 degrees, place your Baby Back ribs in a shallow pan and season well with your favorite seasonings. Making sure season is rubbed in well. Then place in the oven and cook at this temperature for at least 4 hours, longer if you have a lot of ribs. During the last half hour of cooking brush on your favorite homemade or bottled barbeque sauce. Continue cooking until the sauce becomes sticky!

I make my own sauce with Ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, clove of garlic pressed. I cook it in a saucepan for about half an hour before putting on ribs. As you add the ingredients for the sauce start with the ketchup and brown sugar and taste, then continue with the other ingredients, tasting all the while to get a flavor you like. I am sorry I don’t have the exact ingredients, but I never measure when I make this.
