We live by a little motto here- The family that grills all year round, eats well all year round. Am I right, folks? ;)
It doesn't matter if it is 20 degrees outside or if there is a foot of snow on the ground, we break out our grill and electric smoker all year long.

We are also huge fans of fancying up our favorite bottled barbecue sauces. Why make it from scratch when you can pick up a bottle of your favorite Kraft Barbecue Sauce made with high-quality ingredients like tomatoes, sweet molasses, cider vinegar and cane sugar (ahem- no high fructose corn syrup here, folks!)?  If you haven't tried Kraft Barbecue Sauces lately, be prepared to be impressed. Their line of newly revamped sauces in Original, Hickory Smoke, Sweet Honey, Mesquite Smoke, Sweet Brown Sugar, Sweet & Spicy, Spicy Honey, and Thick & Spicy are not only made with better ingredients, but are also bolder in flavor.

When I saw Kraft's recipe for Orange Barbecued Ribs, I knew we had to give it a try. My husband had been itching to grill the baby back ribs we have had in our freezer, and I couldn't wait to try this sauce. Kraft Original Barbecue sauce comes together with fresh oranges and a little spicy kick in these juicy and flavorful basted & grilled ribs recipe...

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour, 35 minutes
Ingredients (6 servings)
  • 1 cup Kraft Original Barbecue Sauce
  • 1 tsp orange zest
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
  • 3 lb. pork spareribs or baby back ribs
Instructions
Heat greased grill to low heat.

Grill, uncovered, 30 min. on each side. Brush with the barbecue sauce mixture. Grill 30 min. or until ribs are done (160 degrees F), turning and brushing occasionally with the barbecue sauce mixture.

Kraft Kitchen Tips-
Size Wise- Balance this special occasion entree with smart side dishes. For example, choose a mixed green salad and vegetable.

Substitute- Heat grill to low heat. Substitute 1 (3-lb.) cut-up broiler-fryer chicken for the ribs. Place chicken, skin-sides down, on greased grill. Grill, uncovered, 50 min. to 1 hour or until chicken is done (165 degrees F), turning occasionally and brushing with barbecue sauce mixture the last 15 min. of grilling time. Makes 5 servings.

Use Your Oven- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place ribs on rack of broiler pan. Bake 1 hour 15 min. or until ribs are done (160 degrees F), turning and brushing occasionally with barbecue sauce mixture the last 30 min. of baking time.

Enjoy!

Grilled baby back ribs happen to be an every once in a while indulgence for us. We balanced out these flavorful, tender ribs with simple potatoes roasted with fresh garlic and olive oil, and a fresh garden salad. 
These Orange Barbecued Ribs are perfect for a special dinner or for grilling up for the big game.
