Sylvia’s Ribs

Directions

Ingredients :

8 pounds pork spareribs

3 cups ketchup

1 cup barbeque sauce

1 cup brown sugar

2 ½ tablespoons lemon juice

2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

1 dash hot pepper sauce

or to taste

3 tablespoons steak sauce

(e.g. Heinz 57)

2 cloves garlic

minced

Methods :

Place the ribs in a large stock pot with enough water to cover. Bring the water to a boil and cook over medium-high heat for 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

In medium saucepan, combine ketchup, barbeque sauce, brown sugar, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, steak sauce and garlic; blend well. Cook the sauce over medium heat for approximately 20 minutes. (Please note that the above ingredients are all to taste. Use more or less of anything you like. I never make the ribs the same way twice!)

Cut the ribs between the bones and place in a baking pan. Pour sauce over ribs, cover and cook for 30 minutes. Remove foil and continue cooking for an additional 30 minutes.
