BBQ PORK RIBS

One of the reasons why i love this dish is because Pork is a very sweet meat  that brings out the sweet tooth in me. The dish is prepared delicately incorporating different flavors to bring out its unique taste.The BBQ sauce is like the icing on a cake, it brings out the best of the dish. The sauce looks like caramelized tomato sauce and has a smoky, sweet and tangy flavor all in one.Here is one of the recipes i use,hope you enjoy
