I gotta tell ya...all I wanted was some ribs. I've never made them before so I thought I'd give this a try. All was going well. I had them in the oven all rubbed up. Smelling good! Then it came time to check them. I pulled them out of the oven and, unbeknownst to me, a hole had appeared in the foil and it dumped hot chili powder lava all over my wrist. It hurt so dang much that I threw the ribs up on the counter and juices went all over my tile floor. I yelled a bit, and my dog come running in and started licking it up. I went to shoo him away and slipped and fell on my rump and hurt my knee. I yelled some more and my mother came in to see what the ruckus was and slipped and fell right next to me. When she did, her foot came up kicked me in my nose. Now I'm bleeding all over the dang place. My dogs barking, my mom's freaking out. I'm moaning in pain. When it was all said and done, I ended up with a bandage on my wrist, a swollen knee and two black eyes. And to boot, my dog has irritable bowel syndrome from all that chili powder juice he licked up. All I wanted was some dang ribs! Soooo....when I finally got a chance to eat these things, they were ok. If you like, and I mean really like chili powder then these ribs are for you. If not, you won't care much for them. The rub is strong and overtakes the flavor of the meat. Just my opinion. But then again, I couldn't breath when I was eating them. Maybe that impaired my judgment a bit. ;)
