Sweet-and-Sour Ribs image

Meet the Cook: When I was a girl, my three sisters and I took turns planning and cooking the Saturday meal. Now that I'm grown, I like making this for family dinners and potlucks at work (I'm an R.N.). It supplies a nice change from everyday fare. -Kate Raleigh, Salt Lake City, Utah

I've tried this recipe a few times and I can never get the ribs to cook all the way through. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

The ribs were a bit tough, but the sauce was great. I'll try it again with a different cooking method.

I'm not a big fan of ribs, but these were really good! The meat was fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was delicious.
