The name of this recipe says it all! They really are to die for. I enjoyed both the rub and the BBQ sauce. Some people might want to use Kosher salt in the rub to avoid the extra sodium. I use country style rib, the really meaty ones, when I made this last night. At the end of 2 1/2 hrs of baking the ribs started to fall off the bone then. Shh, I took a little piece to try. YUM! When making the sauce I could taste the lemon juice at first until it cooked down. Then the flavors blended in nicely. So now I brought the ribs back up from the refrigerator, put the sauce on and put them under the broiler. I hope those thick ribs warm back up in 12 minutes or I'm just diving in and eating then half warmed up. Thank you for posting. Made these for *New Kids On The Block 2009*

<p>This year I will be married to my husband Tom 15yrs. Time flies!! I have two beautiful kids. Our son Hayden Thomas is 14yr old and into sports & video games. Our daughter Addison Claire is 9yrs old and is taking ballet, tap & acrobats & loves to draw. We also have a chubby puppy (Shorkie) named Moe. Cooking is a hobby of mine. I love it. I grew up in a Polish family with many great cooks. My grandfather owned one of the best meat shops in town...now his grandson's own the buisness. Cooking is a family tradition. I grew up eating large, homemade meals. Lots of meat and potatoes. <br />I am trying to use this site as my personal cookbook. Hoping to not <br />use my recipebox anymore. <br />I have a little pet peeve. It is when people ask for a recipe, because they liked something you made...and then don't follow the recipe given. Go figure!! If you change my recipe....and it doesn't turn out...please don't tell anyone you got the recipe from me. LOL.</p>
