grandma mertz's inspired country-style spare ribs
(6 ratings)
Both of my grandmas were wonderful cooks, albeit with totally different styles & dishes. How lucky was I to grow up with them both! The smell of these spare ribs baking in the oven make me feel as if I'm back in my Grandma Mertz's kitchen. I've never had any I like even close as much as these -- they will fall apart & melt in your mouth!

How To Make grandma mertz's inspired country-style spare ribs
-
1Heat oven to 275 degrees. Salt (lightly) & pepper spare ribs w/ some water for about 30/45 mins to get rid of some of the fat. Put spare ribs in a different baking pan or get rid of all water & grease & use same one.
-
2Meanwhile, cook all other ingredients in a pan on stove & bring to boil. Reduce to simmer.
-
3Pour the bbq mixture over the spareribs. Bake for about 3 hours, turning over once. You will note the meat becomes extremely tender & the tops will begin to get a bit brown. Keep basting the sauce over to ensure they stay nice & moist. That's it! I love to serve w/ sweet potato casserole & baked corn or a baked potato & then I put the yummy sauce on the potato 2. :) Enjoy!
