Have you ever had spareribs that were so tough that you ended up with all sauce and no meat? Well, that won't happen with these! Nope! Instead you'll get tender meat and tasty caramelized coating in every bite.
What You'll Need
- 4 pound pork spareribs, cut into individual ribs
- 1/2 cup cider vinegar
- 1 1/2 cup water
- 3/4 cup chili sauce
- 3/4 cup firmly packed dark or light brown sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 (15 to 20 ounce) can pineapple chunks, 1/2 cup juice reserved
What to Do
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place ribs in a large roasting pan that has been coated with cooking spray. Pour cider vinegar and water over ribs and cover tightly with aluminum foil.
- Bake 1 hour, then drain off excess liquid.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine remaining ingredients; mix well. Pour over spareribs and bake, uncovered, an additional 45 minutes or until glaze begins to caramelize, basting occasionally.
Notes
If you want to make these a day or two in advance, prepare them up to the point of baking, cover, and chill until ready to bake. Then bake them in a 350 degrees F. oven about 55 minutes, or until hot and well glazed.
