Celebratory Country Ribs

I made these the other night to celebrate Tim's first full week at his new job.  I would have made them on the BBQ like I used to, but I decided to pop them in the oven to see how they turned out.  Take my advice- throw them on the grill.  They were still good, I mean how can you really mess up ribs?  Still, there is nothing that compares to that open BBQ flavor.

Celebratory Country Ribs  

2 1/2 pounds pork spareribs
2 (18 ounce) bottles barbeque sauce
1 onion, quartered
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder

Place spareribs in a large stock pot with barbeque sauce, onion, salt, and pepper. Pour in enough water to cover. Bring to a low boil, and cook approximately 40 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Line baking dish with foil. Remove spareribs from the stock pot, and place on the foil.  Cover with foil, and bake for 30 minutes. Turn once or twice, and baste with liquid from stockpot. 10 minutes before serving, remove foil and let ribs crisp up.

Like I said, I made these in the oven, but they would be much better on the grill.  Enjoy!
