Chinese Barbecued Ribs

bbq, pork

6 pounds spareribs
1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup lemon or lime juice
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
2 cloves garlic; finely minced
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/2 cup honey

These moist flavorful ribs are simmered first, then glazed on the grill with a sweet-and-sour barbecue sauce. The rich, dark and delicious glaze is especially good when made with hoisin sauce, which gives it an oriental flavor. Place ribs in large pot and cover with water. Simmer, covered, for about 1 hour or just until tender; drain. Arrange ribs in shallow pan. Mix together remaining ingredients, except honey, stirring until cornstarch-is dissolved. Pour over ribs; allow to marinate for at least 2 hours. Remove ribs from marinade and place on barbecue grill about 6 inches above hot coals. Cook for about 10 minutes, turning once and brushing often with marinade. Add honey to remaining marinade and brush over ribs; continue cooking for about 10 minutes longer, turning once and brushing often with honey mixture until richly glazed. Remove ribs from grill; cut into pieces of one or two ribs each. To cook indoors: Broil marinated ribs about 6 inches below broiler in oven, turning and basting as on barbecue. If preferred, marinated ribs may be baked instead of broiled: arrange in shallow roasting pan and brush liberally with marinade. Bake in 350 F oven for about 15 minutes; brush with honey mixture and cook for 5 to 10 minutes longer or until richly glazed.
