Saucy Country-Style Oven Ribs

These saucy country-style oven ribs are the ultimate comfort food for anyone seeking a hearty, high-protein meal. By simmering the pork before baking, the meat becomes exceptionally tender, allowing the bold, home-made glaze to penetrate deep into every fibre. The sauce strikes a perfect balance between sweet honey and zesty lemon, with a hint of warmth from the dry mustard and horseradish providing a sophisticated depth of flavour.

Ideal for a relaxed weekend dinner or a family gathering, this recipe transforms a simple cut of meat into a succulent feast. Serve these ribs alongside a crisp green salad or some buttery steamed greens to balance the richness of the cider vinegar and Worcestershire sauce. It is a reliable, crowd-pleasing dish that tastes even better the next day if you are lucky enough to have leftovers.

How to make Saucy Country-Style Oven Ribs

Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 177°C.

Put ribs in a 6- to 8-quart pot and cover with water by two inches. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, skimming froth, 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook onion and garlic in oil in a 3- to 4-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients and simmer, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes.

Drain pork in a colander and pat dry, then arrange in 1 layer using tongs in a 13- by 9-inch baking dish. Pour sauce over pork to coat evenly, then cover dish tightly with foil. Bake 1 hour, then remove foil and carefully turn pork over with tongs and cook, uncovered, until very tender, about 30 minutes. Skim fat from sauce if desired.
