These are perfect for the colder days leading into winter. We enjoyed them with braised winter greens, sweet potato pone and hot water cornbread. I let mine marinate overnight in the fridge for added flavor,and put in a half cup of Sweet Baby Rays' barbeque sauce right at the end.

  • 1
    Gather your ingredients. Prick your ribs with a fork and set aside.

    Place all ingredients in a 1 gallon ziploc bag and seal. Shake well to coat meat and place in a pyrex dish in the fridge overnight.
  • 3
    Remove ribs from marinade, and let them come up to temperature, about 30 minutes. Heat a skillet on the stove top til almost smoking. Coat bottom of skillet with vegetable oil and brown ribs on both sides long enough for a crust to form.

    Note: I DON'T ADVISE RINSING YOUR MEAT. I RECENTLY SAW ON THE VIEW THAT THE SPLASHING WATER ONLY HELPS SPREAD POSSIBLE CONTAMINATES, AND IF YOU COOK IT LONG ENOUGH, YOU WILL KILL SALMONELLA, E COLI, ECT. BUT USE YOUR OWN DISCRETION!!
