I created this sauce 45 years ago when I adapted a recipe I saw in a magazine. The original called for much more oil. I usually triple the sauce and keep some in my freezer to use on chicken , beef or pork. —Barbara Gerriets of Topeka, Kansas

I love these ribs because they're boneless. It's so easy to get the ingredients together for this recipe, and it's low-maintence because you stick it in the oven and walk away. I will definitely make this recipe many times more!
