| | | Hmmm... OK, I was going to guess a pepper-filled baked burrito.
And that might not be a half bad idea.
Pillsbury crescent roll mix
shredded beef, precooked with seasoning
peppers
monterey jack cheese
bake
salsa to dip
damn, that might just be my dinner.

| | | Thanks Craig! My pops used to make some badass stromboli when we were growing up, and when I had a craving I just called him up and got the ingredients. Granted, it's not as pretty as his was (or well put together for that matter), but it tasted amazing, especially for a first try.
I've started to cook a lot more lately now that I'm at the new place...it gets expensive going out to eat all the time..

| | | I'm no master chef, but aren't you supposed to sear meats first and then cook the inside to maintain the deliciously moist interior?
It's going to taste great either way.

 : 78 th | | | ah young padawans...
But when you are eating ribs, you want the meat to fall off the bone, not have to be gnawed off like a wild animal eating its prey. So the oven does the cooking part (by the way, the meat is wrapped in tinfoil to keep the juices inside of the cooking container to keep it moist and basting in its own juices... to DJ Wheel's point), but the grill is what gives the ribs their seared-in flavor of the BBQ sauce, and gives them that crispiness on the outside.
so when putting ribs in the oven you're basically cooking them; bringing the meat out of the TDZ, killing bugs, browning the meat...that's essentially what cooking does.
When you eat ribs at a restaurant, that's how they get the meat to fall right off the bone like that. Oven, then grill top. And many restaurants actually cool the ribs overnight after the oven, not just a few hours like I do.
