LSH 3 - Pork Ribs

For the past couple of days, I have been thinking of having some breaded pork chops as part of a meal. During lunch, Malou and I went out to eat. Right there in the menu was a lunch special for sweet and hot pork chops! They fried the pork chop then poured some sweet and hot chili sauce on it. I still plan on making some breaded pork chops hopefully during the weekend.
About the ribs, we bought a pack a week ago. I promised Malou I would take care of it some day. Well, today's the day! I also had some molasses in the ref so I thought I might as well use some of that too. I was thinking of hunan spare ribs but it was probably the color of the ribs I was after.

1.5 lbs pork ribs
0.5 cup of soy sauce
0.5 cup of vinegar
1 tbsp of molasses
3 cloves of garlic mashed
0.5 cup of apple juice

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place pork ribs in a pan.
2. Rub garlic cloves all over pork ribs. Leave the garlic with the pork ribs.
3. Mix the soy sauce, vinegar and molasses. Pour over the pork ribs and garlic.
4. Place pork ribs in the oven for 20 minutes.
5. Flip pork ribs and roast for another 20 minutes.
6. Place pork ribs on chopping board and let rest. Pour juices left in the pan into a sauce pan. Add apple juice and heat sauce pan until sauce is to desired thickness.
7. Chop pork ribs and serve the sauce on the side. That or just pour it on the pork chops!
