1

teaspoon freshly ground pepper

2

tablespoons canola oil

1

large onion, chopped (1 cup)

1 1/2

cups chopped celery

2

cups cranberry juice

1

bottle (19.5 oz) teriyaki triple ginger sauce

1

can (14 oz) whole berry cranberry sauce

4

Preparation

Heat oven to 300°F. Sprinkle ribs evenly with salt and pepper. In 5-quart Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Working in batches, brown ribs in oil on all sides; remove ribs to large roasting pan.

Add onion, celery, garlic and gingerroot to Dutch oven. Cook over medium heat about 8 minutes, stirring frequently, until vegetables are soft. Add vegetables to ribs in roasting pan.

Pour cranberry juice into Dutch oven; heat to boiling over high heat. Boil 1 minute, scraping up browned bits from bottom of pan. Reduce heat to medium. Stir in teriyaki sauce and cranberry sauce until blended.

Pour 3 cups of the sauce over ribs. Reserve remaining 2 cups sauce for serving; refrigerate.

Cover roasting pan with foil; bake 3 hours to 3 hours 30 minutes or until ribs are tender. Reheat reserved sauce; serve with ribs. Sprinkle ribs with green onions.
