It is yummy...:smile:..This recipe has been evolving for the last twenty five years or so....works great on the barbeque as well. Used to do this three or four times in a summer when the kids were at home. I just happened to be cooking some ribs for dinner tonight.

The recipe calls for back ribs but well trimmed side ribs work just as well.

I've used as many as four but two is enough. That was a typo. :smile: Four won't hurt.

Just strong enough to make you wonder what that taste is. Most people will say things like "what is that neat flavour? This is my favourite rib recipe.

Almost any kind of instant coffee will do. I've used everything from Nabob to Nescafe and it doesn't seem to make a lot of difference.
