This was really good. I had a rack of spareribs that needed cooking that day but I didn't have 2 1/2 hours to do them in the oven. This was fast and as good as a low, slow roast. I also didn't make the sauce as recommended and used my favorite BBQ sauce (Carolina Honey Barbecue Sauce) instead. Next time (and there will be a next time!)I'll try the sauce as given in this recipe. Thanks for this time-saving way to do spareribs!
