Barbecue Pork Country Style Ribs – Without the Grill!

You can enjoy Barbecue Pork Country Style Ribs even if you don’t own a grill. Here’s an easy recipe to whip up Country Style Ribs, whenever you crave them!

One of my favorite “cheap eats” I like to make for my family is Barbecue Pork Country Style Ribs. When on sale, these ribs can be as cheap as 99¢/pound. For my big family of 5 picky eaters, that’s some good cheap eats. Everyone loves ribs.

But you don’t need a grill to enjoy some barbecue!

Country Style Ribs are boneless. If not cooked properly, you will end up with some terrible meat that only your dog can chew.

But, don’t worry. It’s easy to make at home. Place the ribs in a big pot and cover with water. Add some onions, garlic cloves, peppercorns, bay leaves and such. Cook for an hour.

Now, don’t eat them quite yet! Honestly, you won’t want to eat them. They are plain right now.

Place your ribs on a baking sheet, slather with barbecue sauce and bake in the oven until tender – about one hour more. Now you’ve got finger-licking Barbecue Pork Country Style Ribs – Without the Grill!

And on the cheap, too.
