Submitted By: Kathleen Willis Toby

Ingredients

• 11/2 cups maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons chili sauce
• 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
• 11/2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper

3 pounds spareribs, cut in serving-size pieces

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350º. In medium bowl, combine maple syrup with rest of ingredients except spareribs; mix well.
Wipe spareribs with damp paper towel. Brush both sides with maple basting sauce. Place ribs in a single layer on a rack in a shallow, open roasting pan. Roast 11/2 hours or until tender, basting frequently with sauce and turning occasionally to glaze evenly.
