"These ribs were a hit at a BBQ dinner I attended recently. The host was serving a bunch of copycat recipes and this one was on the menu. This can easily be made gluten free by using gluten free Worcestershire sauce."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Put ribs in a large pot with enough water to cover them. Bring water to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 1 hour or until ribs are fork tender.

Step 2

Mix all sauce ingredients together in a medium sauce pan and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer uncovered, stirring often, for 30 minutes or until slightly thickened.

Step 3

Heat broiler. Line broiler with foil for easy cleanup.

Step 4

Place ribs, meat side down, on broiler pan, brush with 1/2 the sauce and broil 4−5 inches from heat source for 6 to 7 minutes.

Step 5

Turn ribs over, brush with remaining sauce and broil 6 to 7 minutes longer or until edges are slightly charred.

Step 6

Step 7

NOTE: The host did not broil these as directed in the original recipe, she grilled them over direct medium heat while brushing them with the sauce which worked perfectly.
