Description

Boiled pork spareribs are baked in the oven in a mixture of ketchup, barbecue sauce, and other condiments, resulting in ribs that are finger-linking good!

Ingredients

8 pounds pork spareribs
3 cups ketchup, or to taste
1 cup barbecue sauce, or to taste
1 cup brown sugar, or to taste
3 tablespoons steak sauce (such as A1®), or to taste
2 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice, or to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced, or to taste
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, or to taste
1 dash hot pepper sauce, or to taste

Directions

1 Place ribs in a large stockpot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for 1 hour.
2 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
3 When the ribs are about halfway finished, combine ketchup, barbecue sauce, brown sugar, steak sauce, lemon juice, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and hot pepper sauce in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes.
4 Drain ribs; cut between the bones. Place into a baking pan and pour sauce over top. Cover the pan with foil.
5 Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and continue to bake until meat pulls away easily from the bone, about 30 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
