My hubby loves race day! It’s his favorite day of the week. We end up making delicious food so that we can enjoy it while the race is on! So it was our thought to share with you our favorite grilled country style ribs recipe.
This week I went all out and even decorated the table like a checkered flag at the race. It’s all black and white in honor of my hubby’s love of race day! My kids were asking why we were eating all fancy? LOL Everything on my table was disposable. So, that was funny!

Thank you Margot! I fixed it!
Wow! Those ribs look incredible, Dina! I love that you went above and beyond to make race day special for your family. Your comment about the kids thinking you had “gone all fancy” made me laugh! My kiddos say the same thing when I do ANYTHING that differs from the norm, ha! Thank you for the advil suggestion–and coupon! I’ll be sure to try it out!
I haven’t eaten meat for a years now, and since I don’t make it much at home my husband is suffering, lol! This is definitely a meal he would enjoy!
My husband does most of the grilling in our house, but I’m slowly starting to be more confident with my grilling abilities. These Country Style Ribs look so good! My husband would be so surprised if I had grilled ribs waiting for him after work!
Ribs are a BIG thing in our house! They never last long and these look amazing!
I’m not a race fan, but I am a BBQ fan! My whole family loves BBQ ribs and those look yummy! I haven’t heard of film-coated Advil before but I’m definitely going to check it out. Advil is our go to pain reliever. It works great!
