A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

To bring the Hard Rock Cafe home with you, just make these ribs and toss on some classic rock n' roll music. These ribs have a sweet and tangy sauce that is irresistible.

3 1/2 slab St. Louis ribs
2 cups water
2 cups liquid smoke flavoring
Sauce
1/4 cup chicken stock
2 cups ketchup
1 teaspoon maple syrup
1/3 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 3/4 teaspoon liquid smoke
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
1 1/4 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 bay leaf
3 tablespoons white vinegar
3 tablespoons orange juice
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Combine the ribs, water, and liquid smoke in a large container (or large zip-top bag). Let marinate for 15-30 minutes.
Remove the ribs from the marinade and place in a roasting pan. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. Place in the oven and bake at 375 degrees F for 3 hours or until just tender.
Remove the ribs from the oven and let cool for 30 minutes at room temperature. The ribs can be prepared up to this point and refrigerated if you wish to cook them at a later time.
Preheat a grill.
Combine the chicken stock, ketchup, maple syrup, garlic powder, black pepper, oil, liquid smoke, mustard, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and bay leaf in a Dutch oven or large stockpot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the vinegar and orange juice, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook for 5 more minutes. Remove the bay leaf.
Place the ribs on the preheated grill, meaty-side down and grill until browned. Turn over and brush with the barbecue sauce. Let cook for 10 more minutes or until practically falling off the bone.
Brush with additional barbecue sauce before serving or serve with the sauce on the side.
