The best ribs ever: Oregano Garlic Pork Ribs

Recently I was at my parents. They were lamenting about my garlic oregano pork ribs and how yummy they were. These ribs are my dad and husband’s favorite ribs. My dad isn’t into BBQ; because of the sweet sauces. I had a long drive home from their house… 5+ hours… and of course my mind (and taste buds) got thinking about those baby back ribs. In the car driving, I decided that I was going to make ribs sooner than later.

Don’t know about you, but I’m picky about my ribs. Ribs not done well can be dry or fatty. Living in North Carolina where pig is king, it is easy to find good quality pork products. At a decent price.

Years ago I found the recipe for garlic oregano ribs. It was so yummy and easy: ribs and a rub of garlic, oregano, red pepper, salt, and oil. That’s it. Yes. That’s all for these garlic oregano ribs. Simple food is often best. And this recipe gets a blue ribbon.

Roast it in the oven for an hour at 400F. And there you have some tasty, moist ribs. Serve with corn on the cob and potato salad. A perfect dinner.

The weather has turned warm and having the oven on heats up the kitchen too much. Today it was 88F in there when I was roasting the ribs in the oven. If there are any BBQers reading this, I’m wondering if I can do them on the grill? Thanks.
