Glazed Country Ribs

I'm the designated camp cook when my buddies and I go hunting and fishing. I started with a basic recipe, then modified it to suit my tastes. The ribs are melt-in-your-mouth tender and coated with a mild sweet sauce.—John Brink, Harrison, South Dakota

4 ServingsPrep: 30 min. Bake: 1-3/4 hours

Ingredients

2 pounds bone-in country-style pork ribs
1-3/4 teaspoons salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon pepper, divided
3/4 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 bay leaf

Directions

Place ribs on a rack in a foil-line shallow roasting pan; sprinkle
with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Bake, uncovered, at
400° for 30 minutes. Turn ribs. Reduce temperature to 350°;
bake 30 minutes longer.
Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine the orange juice, lemon juice,
brown sugar, garlic powder, lemon peel, ginger, cloves, bay leaf and
remaining salt and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer,
uncovered, for 15 minutes. Discard bay leaf.
Remove ribs from rack; drain drippings. Return ribs to pan; brush
with sauce. Bake, uncovered, for 45-60 minutes or until tender,
turning and basting often. Yield: 4 servings.
