Roasted Honey-Glazed Spareribs
"Mmmm! From Gourmet magazine. Be sure to line your roasting pan with foil to help in the clean up. These need to marinate for 24 hours, so plan ahead."

These ribs are delicious. I substituted Texas Pete for the Tobasco and garlic powder for the fresh garlic, since those are what I had on hand. I am taking a star off because the nutrition information is not even remotely correct. Or it may be correct if it is just for the marinade. If that is the case, then it should be spelled out in the recipe. -
these ribs are 100% keepers. The taste was marvelous, i used a strong honey because i wanted more than just a sugar taste form the honey itself and it went so well with the pork flavor. -
Another delicious recipe from lazyme! The marinade was delicious and I ended up marinating the ribs for 48 hours. I made 1/2 the amount of ribs and it turned out perfectly! I ended up using all of the marinade while basting, but I used a fair amount. Wouldn't change a thing! Made for P-A-R-T-Y tag. Thanks lazyme! :)
