This is the best I do it this way all the time and they turn out great!!!
THE BEST PORK RIBS
Pork ribs (any variety)
1 bottle barbeque sauce (I Prefer Sweet Baby Rays, but any will do)
1 c. Orange Juice
Mix together Barbeque Sauce and orange juice. Lay ribs in a baking pan and pour BBQ mixture over the top. The ribs should be nearly submerged in the BBQ mix.
Cover pan with foil and set oven to 250.
Option 1: Cook for aprox. 3 hrs (depending on amount of meat). Remove from pan and serve. The meat will be juicy and delicious and it should literally fall right off the bone. If you cook them this way they are EXCELLENT but its nearly impossible to eat them with your hands.
Option 2: Cook meat for about 2 hrs, remove from oven and transfer to hot grill. While on grill, continue to brush with BBQ mix from pan. They should only need a few minutes on each side. The BBQ sauce should get a bit crispy, and although the meat isnt quite as tender this way, will still be quite tasty and much easier to serve and eat
I put mine in the oven with a dry rub (Butter mesquite rub, garlic, onion, pepper) and put some water in the bottom of the pan. Cover with plastic wrap and then foil and steam them in the oven for 2 hours on 350. Take foil and plastic wrap off and use a hickory bbq sauce and bake for another 30 minutes. My ribs turn out so tender they are almost falling off the bone.
