 Me Zen Place (California) says:
So even though Von's advertised country ribs on sale, my local one only offered the sale price on the rib roast. The good news is that this recipe works well on a 3.5 lb roast.

About thirty minutes into the baking, my son abandoned his computer game (no, really!) wanting to know what smelled so good and when could he eat it.

I followed the recipe pretty closely, except I used dark soy sauce since that's what I had on hand. Did not adjust the cooking time at all, and the roast came out perfectly cooked.

Will definitely do this again, with actual country ribs this time, and light soy sauce. The BBQ sauce is very hearty. The only thing I added to my serving was a nice dollop of Habanero hot sauce, which nicely finished the dish IMO.
