    Excellent rib recipe!! I have always had a terrible time making ribs for my DH...but he loved this. We may add more heat next time, but they were wonderful just as written. I did the oven method and they were done in about 3 1/2 hours. Thanks for the recipe!

    10 Stars ! I used my pressure cooker and these were done in a flash.. our one and only complaint was that we really could have eaten more of it than I made LOL. Dh has already asked for a repeat performance of this recipe SOON please and I am MORE than happy to oblige. We found the combination of flavours very good and the only change we made was to use freshly crushed garlic instead of the powder. YUMMO! We also liked that the sauce wasn't tomato based for a change. This goes to top of our list for Zaar ribs tried so far. DH and I both like our ribs cooked a little longer so that the meat is super soft... these flavours go fantastically onto the soft meat. Please see my rating system: 5 brilliant stars for an easy, super tasty, delicious meaL .. next time instead of making 2 serves for the 2 of us, I will be making more! Thanks!!!
