Barbecued Country-Styled Ribs

Serves: 4

Place 4 pounds country-style ribs* in a large pan; add enough water to cover. Cover; heat to boiling. Reduce heat; cook 1 hour. Remove ribs; drain. Place bone side down on grill 3 inches from medium coals, cook about 30 minutes, turning frequently.

Prepare Orange Sauce (below). Spoon sauce over ribs; cook 5 minutes. Turn; spoon sauce over ribs and cook 5 minutes longer or until ribs are done.

Orange Sauce:

1/3 cup orange marmalade

¼ cup lemon juice

¼ cup soy sauce

1 clove garlic, minced

2 teaspoons cornstarch

2 tablespoon water

Method:

In a saucepan, mix marmalade, lemon juice, soy sauce and garlic. Mix cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into saucepan. Cook, stirring constantly, just until mixture thickens and boils.

*Thick meat from the rib end of the pork loin. If you prefer to use spareribs, decrease cooking time in water to 20 minutes; increase grill time to 50 minutes.

Note: Parboil a good supply of ribs ahead of time, wrap in aluminum foil and freeze. They’ll be ready to thaw and cook on the grill whenever you need them.
