BEST FALL OFF THE BONE BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Mix spices together and apply rub thoroughly over the three racks of ribs on individual large sheets of aluminum foil. Rub both sides of each rack and then tightly seal each rack within the foil. Put on a cookie sheet or two and bake in a preheated 225 degree over for 4 to 5 hours depending how fall of the bone you would like your ribs. When done cooking carefully drain the liquid from the ribs and if you are going to use the sauce you will want ot put them back in oven under a preheated broiler, with foil open for about ten minutes to dry the outside a little. This last procedure can also be done on an open barbeque without using foil. Carefully move ribs, as they will be very tender. SAUCE Put olive oil in heated saucepan add onions and saute over medium heat until soft, but do not brown. Add garlic and stir for 2 to 3 minutes more. Add rest of ingredients and simmer over low heat for 30 minutes. Taste and add lemon juice or more sugar to suit your taste if needed. If you are using the sauce, then you remove the ribs from the oven and glaze the top of the ribs with the sauce. Warm uncovered on grill or under broiler for 15 to 20 minutes.
