Oven Barbecued Baby Beef Ribs

(Perfect for Steeler Sunday!)

"For a tempting platter of tender, juicy browned ribs, try these beef ribs basted with a sauce perked up with mustard, lemon, and chili sauce. They require surprisingly little effort to prepare but make for superb eating for family or guests."

For 4 servings you will need:
1 1/2 to 2 lbs. baby beef ribs

Basting sauce:
4 green onions, chopped
2 tbsp. butter or margarine
1 tbsp. all-purpose flour
1 tbsp. Dijon-style mustard
1/2 to 1 cup beef broth
2 tbsp. lemon juice
3 tbsp. chili sauce
Dash freshly ground black pepper

Preparation:
1. Wipe ribs with damp paper toweling. Place single layer in shallow roasting pan. Roast at 450 degrees for about 20 min. Drain off fat.
2. Meanwhile, prepare sauce by sauteing onions in butter until tender. Blend in flour and mustard. Cook 1 or 2 min.
3. Stir in beef broth, lemon juice, chili sauce and black pepper. Cook 5 to 7 min. stirring, until sauce is smooth and thickened.
4. Brush sauce over ribs. Return ribs to oven. Bake 30 min. or until tender, basting occasionally with sauce.

Good served with: Baked potatoes, buttered cauliflower, tomato and lettuce salad.
