Oven baked BBQ Ribs

Ribs must be on the menu in a few of our kitchens this week. Judy posted a delicious looking rib recipe this past week as well. Here is another melt in your mouth rib recipe. I often add 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 2-3 pieces each to the pan during the last hour of cooking. This is so simple, but I guarantee they are so tender. You can easily half or double this recipe.

3-4 pounds pork back ribs (cut into 3-4 rib sections)

1 500ml bottle BBQ sauce (I like to use Bulls Eye regular)

3/4 cup orange juice

1/4 cup minced onion (optional)

Place ribs in a 9x13 foil lined pan

Stir together remaining ingredients and pour over ribs.

Cover with foil and bake in 300 oven for 2 1/2 -3 hours. (baste once or twice)

Turn heat up to 350 and remove foil. If there is allot of grease at this point spoon some of it off, but don't take out any of the BBQ sauce.

**if you are adding chicken to the pan add it now and place the pieces around the outsides of the pan around the ribs***

Continue to bake for 1 hour. Baste half way through. If meat is getting too dark cover loosely with foil for last 20 minutes.

Some good sides: baked beans, coleslaw, fries, cornbread.
