Kickin' the Saucy Pork Ribs

This is the best way I've found to get all the flavor of good traditional North Carolina style barbeque without the pit master or the pit.

Saucy Pork Ribs
(Serves 8, or 4 twice)
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 2 1/2 hrs

10 lbs pork ribs, cut into 2-3 rib sections
Cajun spice mix or seasoned salt
1 gallon apple cider
4-5 cloves garlic, lightly smashed
1 cup barbeque sauce (my favorite is Sweet Baby Ray's and IMO it's the perfect sauce for pork)

Rub ribs with garlic and Cajun spice or seasoned salt. Drop garlic into bottom of large pot (a pasta pot works fine) and arrange ribs tightly in pot. Pour in cider to cover and bring to a boil. Lower heat, cover pot, and let simmer for about 2 hrs, checking occassionally with a fork. As soon as meat relaxes (fork goes in easily) remove from pot and lay in single layer on two baking pans covered in foil. Brush with barbeque sauce and bake at 450 degrees for 20 minutes. Brush with remaining sauce just before serving.
