Ingredients

  • 3 pounds (1.5k) country-style ribs (bone-in)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon (15g) Creole seasoning
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 2 teaspoons (8g) garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon (15g) Dijon mustard
  • 3 tablespoons or more (8g) thyme, minced (divided)
  • 2 tablespoons or more (6g) rosemary, minced (divided)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350℉/177℃.
  • Salt and pepper pork on both sides, then season with Creole seasoning, garlic, Dijon mustard, and the other half of thyme and rosemary.
  • Prepare a shallow baking pan or roaster by placing onions and half of the thyme and rosemary in the pan.
  • Place the pork in a single layer in the prepared roasting pan. Add more herbs if desired.
  • Carefully cover the baking pan with foil and bake for about an hour. After an hour, uncover and continue cooking for about 30 minutes. That lets the liquid reduce and the pork brown nicely.
  • Serve your country-style ribs with mashed potatoes and pan drippings.

Notes

  • When looking for packaged country-style ribs, go for the ones with similar sizes for even cooking.
  • You don't need to grease the roasting pan because the ribs will release enough fat as they cook.
  • To make for an easy and quick clean-up, line the roasting pan with foil before adding the ingredients.
  • Add a teaspoon or two of apple cider vinegar for extra flavor and tenderness.
  • Letting your meat rest for 10 minutes after taking it off the heat allows the juices to reabsorb for juicier meat.
  • Please remember that the nutritional information is a rough estimate and can vary significantly based on the products used in the recipe.
