Pork Ribs with Tangy Onion and Ketchup Sauce

Ingredients

  • 4 to 5 lbs. pork ribs, cut in serving-size pieces
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 lemon, thinly sliced
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 c. ketchup
  • 1/2 c. Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp. chili powder
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • dash Tabasco sauce

Preparation

Step 1

Place ribs in a shallow roasting pan, meaty side down; season with salt and pepper. Roast at 425° for 35 min. Drain off excess fat; turn meaty side up. Top ribs with sliced lemon and onion. Reduce oven temperature to 350° and continue to roast ribs for 30 min. longer. Meanwhile, combine ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, salt and Tabasco in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and pour over ribs. Continue roasting ribs, basting occasionally, for 1 hr. longer. Add more water if sauce gets too thick.
