1. Before You Begin:

Grilled Spareribs with Birmingham BBQ Sauce offer a delightful combination of smoky, tender ribs and a tangy, slightly sweet barbecue sauce. This recipe brings a taste of Southern comfort right to your backyard.

2. Essentials for the Recipe:

• 5 pounds Pork spareribs, up to 6
• 3 tablespoons Peanut oil
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 medium Onion, minced
• 2/3 cup Tomato catsup
• 1/2 cup Cider vinegar
• 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons Dry mustard
• 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 1 1/4 teaspoons Salt
• 1/4 cup Honey
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar

3. Let’s Get Cooking:

Begin by preparing the Birmingham BBQ sauce and setting it aside. Season the spareribs generously and grill them slowly over indirect heat until they are tender and cooked through. During the last 30 minutes, brush the ribs with the BBQ sauce, allowing it to caramelize and create a delicious glaze.

Step 1: Prepare the Ribs

Trim the rack of ribs, removing excess fat and the thin membrane on the bone side. Ensure the ribs are at room temperature before proceeding. This allows for even cooking and better marinade absorption.

Step 2: Combine Marinade Ingredients

In a mixing bowl, combine all the marinade ingredients, except for the honey and brown sugar. Whisk the ingredients together until well combined. This forms the base of your flavorful marinade.

Step 3: Marinate the Ribs

Place the ribs in a glass or ceramic dish and pour the prepared marinade over them. Ensure the ribs are fully coated. Marinate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator for maximum flavor penetration. Bring to room temperature before grilling.

Step 4: Grill the Ribs

Remove the ribs from the marinade and scrape off the excess with a rubber spatula, reserving the marinade. Grill the ribs over a slow fire for approximately 40 minutes, turning them frequently to prevent burning. The fire should be low and steady.

Step 5: Prepare the Sauce

Pour the reserved marinade into a saucepan. Add the brown sugar and honey to the marinade. This will create a sweet and sticky glaze for the ribs.

Step 7: Glaze the Ribs

Brush the sauce onto the ribs while they are still on the grill. Continue grilling for about 20 minutes, basting frequently with the sauce to keep the ribs moist and flavorful. Ensure the ribs are coated evenly.

Step 8: Serve the Ribs

Slice the ribs just before serving. To serve, place 2 to 3 tablespoons of the remaining sauce on a plate and arrange 2 to 3 ribs on top. The ribs should be tender and flavorful.

4. Serving Suggestions

Serve the grilled spareribs hot off the grill with extra Birmingham BBQ sauce on the side. Classic sides like coleslaw, potato salad, or corn on the cob complement the ribs perfectly. Pair with your favorite beer or a refreshing lemonade.
