Ribs in a Savory Homemade Sauce

This is one of the simplest ways to make ribs with a homemade sauce.

Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup minced onion
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 1/2 tablespoons honey
• 1/2 cup tomato paste
• 1 1/2 cups water
• 1/2 cup white vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1/2 tablespoon ground red chile pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 2 teaspoons salt
• *1 tablespoon dark molasses
• *1 teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring
• *2 teaspoons whiskey

*I have made this recipe without these three items and the sauce tasted perfect. Perfect enough, that my guests never knew.

Directions:

1. Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook onions in oil until tender, about 5 minutes. Combine the remaining ingredients. Bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer uncovered until sauce thickens, about 30 minutes.

Hint: Left over sauce can be frozen.

Ribs done simple:

1. Cut full rib rack in half and wrap in foil. Bake for 2 hours at 300 degrees.
