For the pork:
1 tsp. olive oil
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 28-oz can chopped tomatoes, drained
1/3 C. apricot jam or preserves
1 tsp. balsamic vinegar
kosher salt
black pepper
pork rib ends (I don’t remember exactly how much I used, it was one package with four pieces in it. That was enough for two servings.)

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the tomatoes, jam, vinegar, 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Simmer until the sauce has thickened slightly. Arrange the pork in a baking dish and season lightly with salt and pepper. Pour the BBQ sauce over the pork and roast until it is cooked through, about 1 hour.

For the grits:
1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
1 c grits (not instant or quick cooking)
1 c (4 oz) grated white cheddar
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. unsalted butter

In a medium saucepan, bring 4 1/4 C. water and the salt to a boil. Whisking constantly, slowly add the grits in a steady stream. Reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring frequently, until the grits are thick and creamy, 15 – 20 minutes. Add the cheese and stir until it melts. Add the scallions, pepper and butter and stir.
