SYLVIA'S RIBS

Steps:

• Place the ribs in a large stock pot with enough water to cover. Bring the water to a boil and cook over medium-high heat for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In medium saucepan, combine ketchup, barbeque sauce, brown sugar, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, steak sauce and garlic; blend well. Cook the sauce over medium heat for approximately 20 minutes. (Please note that the above ingredients are all to taste. Use more or less of anything you like. I never make the ribs the same way twice!)
• Cut the ribs between the bones and place in a baking pan. Pour sauce over ribs, cover and cook for 30 minutes. Remove foil and continue cooking for an additional 30 minutes.

SYLVIA'S FAMOUS SPARERIBS

Steps:

• To make the ribs easier to handle, cut each slab between the middle bones into 2 equal pieces.
• Rub the salt, black pepper, and red pepper into both sides of the ribs.
• Place the ribs in a deep baking dish, cover them, and refrigerate overnight. Preheat the oven to 450F.
• Pour the vinegar over the ribs and bake 1 1/2 hours.
• Rotate the ribs two or three times during baking and spoon some of the pan juices over them.
• Remove the ribs from the baking dish and place in a single layer on baking sheets.
• (Line the baking sheets with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.) Bake at 450 F for 1 hour.
• The ribs should be tender and well browned.
• This much can be done up to a day in advance. Cool the ribs, cover tightly, and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature for about 1 hour before continuing.
• To finish the ribs, preheat the oven to 400 F.
• Cut the slabs between the bones into individual ribs.
• Place the ribs in a baking dish large enough to hold them comfortably.
• Spoon enough of the barbecue sauce over them to coat lightly.
• Cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake until heated through, about 20 minutes. Serve with additional barbecue sauce on the side.
• BARBECUE SAUCE Ruth developed this recipe because she found most barbecue sauces too vinegary or bitter, and it's the secret to our popular ribs.
• Simple to prepare and absolutely delicious, once made and strained it keeps for quite a while, at least a month.
• Combine all the ingredients in a heavy pot and heat just till hot. Don't bring to a boil or the sauce will turn dark and become thin.
• Cool the sauce to room temperature, strain it, and store it in a tightly covered jar in the refrigerator.
