Directions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

2. 2

   Season ribs with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Dredge lightly in flour. In a heavy oven-proof pan, such as a cast iron dutch oven, heat oil over medium/high. Add ribs in batches and cook just until brown on all sides, but not until cooked through.

   Place in oven to complete cooking, approximately 30-45 minutes or until meat is done and very tender.

5. 5

   Serve over creamy mashed potatoes.
