PREPARATION:

1. Sprinkle ribs on both sides with Chinese Five Spice. In a baking dish, let ribs marinate for at least one hour and up to 24 hours.
2. Preheat the oven to 275°F.
3. Remove the ribs from the baking dish and sprinkle with brown sugar. Place three 14-inch squares of heavy duty aluminum foil on a work surface. Stack the ribs evenly, fold foil over the top of the ribs and crimp the edges. Tightly seal the packet. Place the rib packet on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 2 hours or until very tender. Remove and set aside to cool briefly before cutting into individual ribs and serving.

   Editor's Note: Look for heritage pork or other antibiotic/hormone-free varieties.
