Kansas City BBQ RIbs

We are big fans of BBQ here at our house. Real BBQ~not the sloppy joe like things that Dutch folks around here call BBQ. There is always much debate about BBQ. Wet or dry? Memphis or Carolina? Patio or Charlie Robinsons? Well, this is about the best recipe I have found for making them yourself. Tasty enough with minimal work.

3 racks baby back ribs
1 onion
1 orange
1 Tbsp whole peppercorns
1 Tbsp coriander

Place all ingredients in sauce pan with just enough water to cover. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer 50-60 minutes, until ribs are fork tender.

SAUCE
3 Tbsp butter
1 onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
15 oz tomato sauce
1/4 c cider vinegar
1/4 c packed brown sugar
salt and pepper

Melt butter, add onion and garlic. Saute til soft. Add remaining ingredients and heat til boiling. Reduce heat and simmer til thick.

Grill ribs 8-10 minutes. Flip and grill 5-10 more. Baste with sauce.
