Notes
I generally serve mashed potatoes to go along with this meal (and put some of the sauce from the ribs over top of potatoes). I also like to serve the ribs and potatoes with glazed carrots (with a bit of butter and brown sugar) and green beans fried up in the pan with chopped garlic, sliced onions and mushrooms. And for dessert - Apple Crisp - which I have a great recipe for as well.
