I am excited to share this recipe because it is my first time making ribs myself. My dad makes ribs as a treat usually once a year or so and I finally got to make them myself. As you have seen, I have been sharing a lot of different grilled food recipes because I love to grill (or at least to eat grilled foods). My husband also loves to grill and has really gotten comfortable making grilled meals.

I decided to make these ribs for my husband for Father's Day. He has been talking about having ribs for awhile now so I knew that this would be the perfect opportunity to make it for him. He does a lot for our family and deserves a nice dinner made special for him! We also made grilled vegetable kebabs for the meal which went along perfectly.

Grilled Vegetable Kebabs

Vegetables of choice (works well: mushrooms, bell peppers, zucchini, onions, etc.) cut into chunks
Olive oil
Garlic powder
Black pepper

Directions:

For this recipe, I used Farmland St. Louis style pork spare ribs which I purchased at Walmart. They turned out very well! These ribs had a lot of meat on them and were not too fatty. I was impressed. My husband loved them which was my goal.
