Does take patience to simmer for two hours, TRUE! The only other thing is NO WAY would this be a meal for 2! Made 9 ribs, ONE was more than enough for me, And I don't eat like a bird, Would my grocery bill you like to see? Don't have ANY expectations about these ribs on the grill, But today these DID T-H-R-I-L-L-! Thanks Happy Cooker Too, I did take your advice, added 2 tabespoons of lemon juice and they came out very nice! Also put every in the blender so was an even sauce, These could be served as an appetiser or main course! Last thing, did baste have way, These ARE delish is what I can say! THANKS! See photos :)

A very tasty sauce! I did deviate a little. Browned the ribs in oven for 30 at 350. Put all sauce ingredients in the food processor, except for green onion--made it very easy. Also I did not use Crystal Lite as I do not care for it. I substituted two tblsp lemon juice. Definitely would make again. Thanks for submitting.
