• enough broth to just cover ribs.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat to gently simmering, cover and simmer until very tender, about 2 1/2 hours.

DRY GARLIC RIBS-CANADIAN CHINESE STYLE

Steps:

• Have your butcher cut the rack of ribs the long way down the middle, then you can cut them between the bones into small pieces.
• Place the ribs into a shallow baking pan in a somewhat single fashion.
• Combine the water, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic and dry mustard into a small saucepan.
• Heat the sauce until the brown sugar is dissolved and the mustard isn't floating on the surface.
• Pour the sauce over the ribs in the shallow pan.
• Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 350* for about an hour.
• Remove the foil and stir the meat.
• Allow to cook 45 minutes more or longer, stirring every 20 minutes so the sugars don't burn, until the meat is very tender.
• We love this served over rice, but can be used just as is on the plate!
