Herby Ribs

A dear friend shared this recipe with me. She is a wonderful chef and we were chatting about ribs and I said I love them but don’t always want to eat them with a bbq sauce so she said this is how she prepares them. I always buy the ribs and marinate them a day or two before. I change it up, if in a pinch, I just use olive oil and herbs de Provence. But when my garden is in and I have ample herbs to be used, I just cut whatever I have and rub them all over the meat. I season with salt and pepper. and drizzle with some olive oil. Sometimes i’ll add some toasted fennel and smashed cloves of garlic. You can’t go wrong. We much prefer our ribs this way. I always cut them in two’s before cooking. They cook quicker and it is easier to serve. I love to serve with either potatoes or polenta. In the late Fall or winter, I will throw the veges in with the meat and roast it all together.
