Country Rib Delight recipe

6 servings

3 pounds pork spareribs

1 cup applesauce

1 cup pure maple syrup

6 tablespoons lemon juice

1/2 cup ketchup

1/4 teaspoon paprika

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Place ribs in a large pot with enough water to cover, and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to low, and simmer 10 minutes.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Grease a baking dish.

In a bowl, mix the applesauce, syrup, lemon juice, ketchup, paprika, cinnamon, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Place ribs in the prepared baking dish, and brush with 1/2 the sauce.

Bake uncovered, basting frequently with remaining sauce, for 1 1/2 hours, until done.
