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

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.

Marinate ribs in sauce 1 to 2 hours at room temperature; meanwhile, prepare a moderate charcoal fire.
