This week we are making dinner for the family. I know you can do this!

Barbequed Ribs in the Oven

Enough ribs for your family (1 pack)

1litre of Coke (not diet!)

1 onion

1 bottle of your favourite barbeque sauce ( I use a sweet sauce)

Lets Get Started!

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut ribs into serving portions ( 4-5 bones in the portion) and place them in a baking dish with the bone side down and the meaty side up.Peel and quarter your onion and put it on top of the ribs in the four big chunks.

2. Slowly pour the Coke over the ribs and then cover with tinfoil. Cook in oven for 45 minutes.

3. Drain the pop off the ribs, leaving the onion in as well. Pour your barbecue sauce over the ribs, making sure you get them all covered. cover them again with the tinfoil and pop them back in the oven. This time turn your oven back to 325 degrees. let them slow cook for at least an hour, even two. when they are done, they fall right off the bones, but you don't need to wait that long. Usually after one hour they are completely cooked.
