Recipe(tried): Barbecue Ribs (using rum, pork spareribs)

BARBECUE RIBS

4 pounds pork spareribs
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup rum
1/2 cup chile sauce
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 dash ground black pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Cut spareribs into serving size portions, wrap in double thickness of foil.

Bake for 1 1/2 hours. Unwrap, and drain drippings. (I usually freeze the drippings to use later in soups.)

Place ribs in a large roasting pan.

In a bowl, mix together brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, rum, chile sauce, garlic, mustard, and pepper.

Coat ribs with sauce and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, or refrigerate overnight.

WHEN READY TO COOK:
Preheat grill for medium heat. Position grate 4-inches above heat source.

Drain marinade into a saucepan and boil for a few minutes.

Brush grill grate with oil. Place ribs on grill, and cook for 30 minutes, basting with marinade.
