Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs

By Thom7747

Original recipe from the Taste of Home Magazine. If you're looking for a change from typical barbecue ribs, you'll enjoy this recipe my mom always prepared on birthdays and special occasions. The tender ribs have a slight sweet-and-sour taste that my family loves. I usually serve them with garlic mashed potatoes and a salad or coleslaw. —Dorothy Voeltz, Champaign, Illinois
