Slow Cooked BBQ Ribs

This was The Mister's birthday dinner last Friday evening. If you need a fool proof recipe for ribs, this is a good one. Cut slabs in half, which is a serving size, approximately. Lay ribs in a pan, (it's ok if they overlap a little). Pour 1 bottle of beer over them and sprinkle with chili powder. Seal tightly with foil and bake at 250 for 6 hours or more. Just before serving, carefully remove slabs onto a cookie sheet, spread tops with your favorite sauce and return to the oven uncovered for 15 minutes. They fall off the bone. Perfect every time. Yum.
Served here with cole slaw and THESE onion rings.

And THIS chocolate cake recipe, of course. :)

    Couldn't you have wrapped it in tin
    And let people visualize
    So my stomach could still pretend and make up fake lies..hahaha
