Ready Time: 3 hrs 15 mins


• preheat oven to 325 degrees f (165 degrees c).
• heat oil over medium heat in a large, heavy, oven-safe pot or dutch oven, and brown the ribs on all sides, about 5 minutes, working in batches if necessary. sprinkle ribs with salt and black pepper as they brown. transfer cooked ribs to paper towels to blot up extra oil.

• cover the pot, and bake in the preheated oven until the rib meat is very tender, about 2 1/2 hours. turn the ribs occasionally while cooking. season to taste with salt and black pepper before serving hot.
