Maple-Glazed Spareribs
I love maple syrup and so does my family, so I gave this recipe a try. It's well worth the effort! I make these ribs often, and I never have leftovers. With two teenage boys who like to eat, this main dish is a real winner.—Linda Kobeluck, Ardrossan, Alberta6 ServingsPrep: 15 min. Cook: 1-1/2 hours
