Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Heat bacon drippings in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat.

Place spareribs in the skillet, and brown on each side for about 5 minutes.

Season with garlic salt and pepper.

In a medium bowl, mix mustard, molasses, soy sauce, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and hot pepper sauce.
