Oven Barbecue Spareribs

By learen

These are the easiest and tastiest ribs I've had in a long time.
From Muriel Karnowski

Ingredients

• 3 pounds spareribs
• 1 each lemon, sliced with peel
• 1 large onion, sliced
• 1 cup ketchup
• 2 cups water
• 1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
• 1 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Step 1

PLACE RIBS, fat side up, in a shallow roasting pan. Put a thin slice each of lemon and onion on each piece of spare rib.

ROAST in very hot oven (450) for 1/2 hour.

COMBINE remaining ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and pour over the ribs.

REDUCE heat to 350 and roast until tender, about 45-60 minutes. Baste ribs every 15 minutes with the sauce in pan, adding a little more water if needed.
