Wow! This is a great dish. I followed Judy Jansen's suggestion and doubled the sauce. So glad I did because this sauce is wonderful. (I thicken the sauce with corn starch because we like a thicker sauce). I served this over brown rice...wonderful meal! Thanks again LeeAnn Duch for another great recipe! :-)

I cooked the ribs a little differently...Followed the recipe ingredients but basted it onto ribs during the last half hour of cooking them in the oven (about 2 hours total). Then basted them again when I took them out....They were delicious! The family loved them! Served the leftover sauce on the side....Will make this sauce again, thanks!!

WONDERFUL! I didn't have rice vinegar so I used apple cider vinegar and it turned out so yummy. I added a bit more fresh ginger/garlic as I love those flavors. Meat fell off the bone and the sauce was great over rice. I used the sweet/sour cut of spareribs. Will be making again soon because it was sooo easy and tasty and a great lazy day meal!

I'm 41y/o wife and mother of 2. I've been a nurse for 20 years. We live in a small town in Arkansas. My passion is cooking. I love to cook anything and everything. Luckily my family is adventerous in their eating habits, so I have lots of fun trying new things out on them. I also like camping, traveling, gardening,water sports and collecting recipes. I like getting to know other people from other parts of the world. We have 5 pets, 2 dogs and 3 ferrets. My worst pet peeve is when people stick their nose up at a dish before trying it, because they know a certain ingredient is in it. I know everyone has different tastes, but picky eaters just don't know what they are missing when they turn down a dish they havent even tried.
