I make this when I want something that feels like I put in serious effort but really the oven did all the work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perfect weekend food.

Rolls I just toast again when I am ready for round two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-my-little-notes-\"><strong>My Little Notes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your pot is not sizzling when you put the ribs in start over. You want that crust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not toss the extra braising liquid. Freeze it. It makes insane gravy or soup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Go easy on the horseradish at first if you are scared of heat. I dump extra because I like pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes I make the meat a day ahead. It actually tastes even better the next day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If I am out of provolone I use cheddar or honestly no cheese at all. It is still ridiculous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"review-box\" role=\"note\" aria-label=\"Leave a review\">\n  <span class=\"star\">\u2605<\/span>\n  <strong>Before You Begin!<\/strong>\n  If you make this, please\n  <a href=\"#respond\" class=\"review-link\">leave a review and rating<\/a>\n  letting us know how you liked this recipe!
