My family has enjoyed these ribs for years; we especially like them with sauerkraut. A friend from Texas gave me the recipe years ago.

We really enjoyed these ribs! I had to substitute Orange Marmalade as I couldn't find the jelly and the flavor was great. Next time we will add a bit more seasoning, maybe more pepper. Very good!
