138 Reviews of Adam's Ribs

I've tried several recipes from Recipezaar for all sorts of dishes. Some great, some so-so, and some not to my tastes. This recipe inspired me to rate it and add comments. It was soooooooooooo good. The meat was not dry andwas very fork tender. I cooked them in the Dr. Pepper about 1 hour and 20 min before the oven part. I found a really good bbq sauce last month called Sweet Baby Ray's which is what I used. It's bottled sauce I got at Kroger. This is the 6th time I've used this sauce. I love it. They got a website in case anyone is curious : sweetbabyrays.com. No I don't work for them but think it goes well with this OUTSTANDING recipe. Thank you sooooo much JoAnn for posting it. I highly reccomend this recipe.

    Yes, this was great! My husband remarked that he guessed we wouldn't have to go to Applebee's for ribs anymore, so that seems to be the ultimate OK. Only thing missing from the recipe for rookie rib makers is that you put them in the oven UNCOVERED.

    Let me start by saying I don't like Dr. Pepper. I was skeptical about this but decided to give it a try. WOW!!! MARVELOUS!!! I used a 2-liter for 4 1/2 pounds of pork country style ribs (with bone) and was amazed at how wonderful they were!!! My DH and BIL raved about them, and so did I!

    I hesitate to try any new rib recipe as my husband is extremely finicky when it comes to his ribs! Well, these met with his seal of approval, so thank you so much for posting. I followed the recipe exactly, except to use two racks of baby back pork ribs that I had on hand. Tender, moist, flavorful and delicious!

    This is really good. It looks awful while it's simmering...but have faith because it turns out great. I simmer the pork ribs for about an 1 1/2 hours and then grill them with bbq sauce.

    This was a big hit with my family. The meat was so tender it literally fell off the bones. I made it in the crock pot (didn't have any liquid smoke) and after cooking on high for about 4 hours, I dumped the liquid and added the bbq sauce. Couldn't have been easier.

    I made these for New Year's Eve and they are amazingly good. (DH says I must use the word AWESOME!) I've never made ribs before and was surprised by how easy this is. I'm glad another reviewer mentioned that they don't look good while in the pot, because I was a little worried for a minute. I used 3 1/2 pounds of babyback ribs, simmered for a little over an hour and baked about 45 minutes. They were so tender and the flavor was outstanding. The meat tasted great even in spots that had no sauce. A VERY good recipe!

    Very Very good flavor ribs! I simmered the ribs for about an hour and 20 minutes. WOW how tender they are! I ate one right out of the boiler and wow what a great taste. I almost couldn't wait for them to bake in the oven with the bar-b-que sauce! I served them with baked potatoes with sour cream and fresh chives, and a side salad. Yum what a great meal! Thanks for sharing.

    I have made this for several years now and it is really the best! I haven't looked any further for a better rib recipe. Simple and very yummy!
