Preparation

Step 1

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the first six ingredients; rub onto both sides of ribs. Place ribs, meat side up, on a rack in a foil-lined roasting pan. Bake at 325° for 1-1/2 to 1-3/4 hours or until tender.

Meanwhile, n a large saucepan, combine sauce ingredients; simmer, uncovered, for 30-40 minutes or until thickened.

Transfer ribs to grill. Grill, uncovered, over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, basting with sauce and turning several times. Reheat remaining sauce and serve with ribs. Yield: 4 servings.

Editor's Note: Ribs may be baked and sauce may be prepared a day ahead and refrigerated. Then grill and baste for 15 minutes or until heated through and nicely glazed.

Editor's Note: When cutting hot peppers, disposable gloves are recommended. Avoid touching your face.
