- Sheilas Raucous BBQ Sauce (above)
- For the Sauce:
- Combine all the ingredients in a heavy saucepan.
- Add 1 cup water, stir well, and bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the sauce has thickened slightly and the flavors have blended, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Pour the sauce through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl, discarding the onion and garlic.
- Taste, and adjust the seasonings as needed.
- Use immediately, or let the sauce cool to room temperature, transfer it to a covered container, and refrigerate it for up to 1 week.
- Makes 3 Cups
- For the Ribs:
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Place the ribs, meaty side up, in a shallow roasting pan.
- Pour 1 1/2 cups of the barbecue sauce over the ribs, and pour 1/2 cup water into the bottom of the pan.
- Bake, basting occasionally, for 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, preheat a barbecue grill to high and then reduce the heat to medium.
- Oil the grill grate well.
- Remove the ribs from the oven and arrange them, meaty side down, on the grill.
- Grill, brushing them occasionally with the extra barbecue sauce, until they are caramelized and have some nice grill marks, about 5 minutes.
- Put the ribs on a large cutting board and cut them apart, slicing between the bones.
- Arrange them on a large platter and serve, with extra sauce on the side for dipping.
