BALSAMIC GLAZED PORK WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• *Note-You could use chopped fresh garlic in place of the dried powder, but I wouldn't add it until the the last ten minutes or so.
• I'm thinking the garlic may burn if you add it at the beginning and would ruin the dish.
• Combine all dry spice ingredients.
• Sprinkle on both sides of the ribs, rub into meat surface.
• Let stand at room temperature for 1/2 hour.
