Super easy oven baked spare ribs


My friend found this recipe on http://www.cookingforengineers.com.  We went and played poker at her house one night and she made these...I was quite impressed!  The meat was falling off the bone and it was oh so juicy!  Here's what the website said:


For pork ribs that literally fall off the bone, I use an oven to slowly cook the ribs. 
The recipe is quite simple: mix 18 oz. of barbeque sauce (1 bottle) with 1/2 cup orange juice. Pour into a 9x13 pan. Place ribs in pan and flip using tongs so ribs are coated. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake in a 300°F oven. Total cooking time can be as short as 2 hours or as long as 4 hours. Flip ribs over halfway through cooking. 

Cooking the ribs for 2 hours will result in meat almost falling off the bones. If you cook for four hours, the ribs may be hard to lift out of the pan because the meat will be on the verge of falling off the bones under slight pressure. The cartilage will also be soft and practically melt in the mouth. 

After the ribs are done cooking, remove th aluminum foil and continue to cook for about 10 min. per side to thicken the sauce.
