The homemade barbecue glazing sauce is not too spicy. These are oven-baked spareribs, but you can finish on the grill if you want a charcoal flavor.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 2 hours, 15 minutes

Total Time: 2 hours, 25 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 5 pounds spareribs, cut in serving size pieces
  • .
  • Sauce:
  • 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup chili sauce
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 teaspoons prepared mild yellow mustard
  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Place spareribs in a large shallow roasting pan and bake, uncovered, 3/4 hour. Drain off all drippings.

Mix together brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, chili sauce, ketchup, mustard, garlic, and pepper. Pour sauce over ribs, and bake, uncovered 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours longer, turning and basting every 20 minutes until tender and richly browned. (Note: For even better flavor, marinate ribs in sauce in turned-off oven 3 to 4 hours after first 3/4 hour of baking and drain off drippings; then bake 1-1/2 hours longer as directed.)

Variation
Favorite Charcoal-Barbecued Spareribs:

Wrap ribs in a double thickness heavy foil and bake 1-1/2 hours at 350 degrees F. Unwrap and drain off drippings. Marinate ribs in sauce 1 to 2 hours at room temperature; meanwhile, prepare a moderate charcoal fire. Remove ribs from sauce, lay on grill about 4 inches from coals, taking care not to crowd them, and broil 20 minutes, basting frequently with sauce and turning often.
