Boneless Ribs, Zesty Potatoes & Veggies

Jared and I were looking forward to making homemade BBQ sauce, a recipe given to us by his sister's boyfriend. We decided to try it on some boneless ribs on Thursday night. We added Zesty Red Potatoes, thanks to http://wineloverscookingdiary.blogspot.com/.

BBQ Sauce Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups margarine
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 garlic cloves or garlic powder to taste
1 tsp. paprika
1/2 cup vinegar
3 cups ketchup (28 to 32 oz. bottle)
2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
2 tsp. chili powder

Directions:
1) Combine all of the ingredients except for the last 4 in a saucepan.
2) Simmer for 20 minutes until thick, stirring occasionally.
3) Turn off heat and add the last four ingredients.
4) Add to meat or store in a glass jar/bowl in refrigerator.

Zesty Red Potatoes Ingredients:
4 medium red potatoes, halved and thinly sliced
2/3 cup small onion, halved and thinly sliced
1/3 cup butter or margarine, melted
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
salt to taste

Directions:
1) Arrange potatoes and onion in an ungreased 9-inch square baking sheet.
2) Combine butter, pepper flakes and salt; drizzle over potatoes and onions.
3) Cover and bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes. Uncover and bake 15-20 minutes longer, or until potatoes are tender.

I LOVED the potatoes! The BBQ sauce reminded us of summertime!

We'll make this again soon -- probably next time with chicken.
