tsp. ground red pepper (cayenne)

lb. pork baby back ribs

bottle (18 oz.) BULL'S-EYE Original Barbecue Sauce

Make It

HEAT oven to 350°F.

MIX sugar, cocoa powder, garlic and seasonings until blended. Rub onto both sides of ribs. Place in foil-lined 13x9-inch pan. Bake 1 hour.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Serving Suggestion

Balance this indulgent entree with smart side dishes. For example, choose a mixed green salad tossed with your favorite KRAFT Lite Dressing, and baked or roasted potatoes.

Special Extra

Cut 2 lb. baking potatoes into wedges, cutting each potato into 4 wedges. Place in 13x9-inch pan. (Not the same pan used for ribs.) Drizzle potatoes with 2 Tbsp. oil. Bake in oven along with the ribs. Transfer pan to grill after 1 hour, along with the ribs. Grill 20 min. or until potatoes are tender, turning after 10 min. Serve with ribs.
