My mom made these tender ribs for special Sunday suppers when we were growing up. A few common ingredients are all you need to make the zesty sauce that coats them. My family's eyes light up when I bring a plate of these ribs to the table, and company never suspects how easy they are to prepare. —Yvonne White Williamson, New York

i have made this recipe a few times and loved it. i went back and read the reviews and decided to add 1/2 c br sugar as others had suggested. it was even better than before.....so, go ahead and add the brown sugar. it really adds to the overall flavor profile.....great and easy recipe.

Can't get any easier! I really enjoyed these "as is" and my sister thought they were wonderful. That being said, next time I think I'll try them with either brown sugar or the apricot preserves and honey being added as a previous reviewer commented.

These were great! Used first time when our BBQ was out of order and now it seems so much easier to do them this way than on the BBQ! I didn't like the sauce though, it was like a hot tomato sauce and I would most definitely say it needed the sugar. I just use my own BBQ sauce.

I made 'as is' and was excellent and easier than my typical go-to recipe. But, for those that wanted a sweeter sauce... In the Feb 2008 'Homestyle Classics' small Taste of Home grocery cookbook... An additional hint by another user is included at the bottom of the recipe: "When I bake spare ribs, I add apricot preserves and a little honey to my favorite barbecue sauce to brush over the meat. The ribs are tangy and delicious!'

To those asking about whether or not to use brown sugar, it would depend on the kind of BBQ sauce you prefer. I don't like sweet BBQ sauces and it ruins most BBQ recipes for me. I tried this recipe without any brown sugar, just as written, and it was PERFECT for me. Loved it and yes, i will be making it again. I tried it for my husband today for father's day. He loved it. If i were cooking it for myself, i would probably make it spicier, but definitely not sweeter.

We totally enjoy this recipe!! I tend to bake the ribs for a little longer to make them extra tender for my kids - and a little bit for me too!

This recipe was delicious. i made a few minor changes. Instead of 1/8 tsp hot sauce I used cayenne pepper and I also added 1/6 cup of Maple Syrup and 1/6 cup of Apple Cider Vinegar. I roasted the ribs for 45 minutes in a roasting pan and then placed ribs in a baking pan covered with the barbeque sauce.

I added half a cup of sauted onions intead of the onion powder to sauce. I did not use the brown sugar. My whole family really liked these just as they are. Definately a keeper!
