Oven-Baked Sweet and Sticky Pork Back Ribs
"I have to say that this is one of the best recipes for back ribs, and since my family loves ribs I have tried many in the past, although they certainly could be grilled on a barbecue the sticky sauce tends to burn on the grill, oven-baking produces a moist tender rib with the most wonderful sticky sauce, so make sure to have lots of napkins when serving these ribs!!! Plan ahead the ribs need to marinade for 8-24 hours (the longer, the better!). This recipe can easily be doubled to serve a crowd, and baked in two separate roasting pans. I make these ribs in a heavy foil baking pan, since the drippings char slightly it makes clean up a breeze, just toss the baking pan in the garbage after baking, if you are not using a disposable baking dish then make certain to line your pan with foil for easy clean-up. You will LOVE THESE RIBS!!!!!!"

We all thought these were yummy too! Super easy and simply delicious. I used parchment in the bottom under the racks and that was a major mistake. Should have listened to Kitten and used foil wrap or a foil pan. -
Yum! I thought these ribs were great - I love the combination of flavours - the hint of citrus with rosemary is really lovely. I didn't have orange marmalade, I had some lemon marmalade and it was just fine. Thanks so much for these ribs - I always trust recipes from you! -
The marinade flavor goes thrue they were tasty but not as sticky as I had hoped. I wanted the sauce to be thick so I added a little corn starch and it helped. but over all very tasty.
