Country Pork Ribs

(Serves 4-6)

When we think of ribs, we usually think barbecue but these are slightly different. Roasted with a flavorful mixture of stock, garlic, seasoned salt, onions, and peppers, they are simple and succulent. This recipe comes together quickly, and the ribs roast for less than two hours, making them a perfect addition to weeknight and weekend meals.

4 pounds country-style pork ribs
1 cup water
1/2 cup Chicken Stock
8 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
1 tablespoon seasoned salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
1 large onion, peeled and sliced
2 green bell peppers, stemmed, cored, seeded, and sliced

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F

2. Arrange the ribs in a large roasting pan or on a large baking sheet. Stir together the water, stock, garlic, seasoned salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add the onion and peppers, tossing to combine. Pour over the ribs and roast until the ribs are very tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

3. To serve, slice the ribs and arrange on a large platter.
