This is one of the first dishes I asked my mom to teach me how to make. The first time she cooked for my now-husband, this is the dish I asked her to make for him. I knew it would be the perfect first impression. We are happily married now, so I guess the magic of the dish worked. The trick to this recipe is browning the ribs as much as possible, making them extra crispy. The sauce will scoop up every bit, making it that much more delicious.
