Caramelized Goat Ribs

I carefully attempted these goat ribs using a wide range of flavors. I marinated the ribs with a delicious savory-chilli pesto for a few hours then coated them with a sweet homemade BBQ sauce.

I served the ribs with a nice baked vegetable dish which had some potatoes, carrots, and onions.

Making these ribs took me a while but they were totally worth it. My family absolutely loved them therefore I am sharing this recipe with you so that you and yours can enjoy too.

Not much talking today because we got a lot to do, let's get to the recipe!!!
