How to make
-
STEP 1
Melt butter in 3-quart saucepan over medium heat until sizzling; add onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, 3-5 minutes or until softened.
-
STEP 2
Stir in all remaining sauce ingredients; continue cooking 5-6 minutes or until mixture is slightly thickened.
-
STEP 3
Pour into mini-food processor bowl fitted with metal blade or blender container; process until smooth.
-
STEP 4
Bring water to full boil in 6-quart saucepan; add ribs. Cook over medium-high heat 20-25 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 195°F and ribs are fork tender.
-
STEP 5
Heat one side of gas grill on medium or charcoal grill until coals are ash white. Place coals to one side in charcoal grill. Make aluminum foil drip pan; place opposite coals.
-
STEP 6
Place ribs onto grill over drip pan; brush with sauce. Grill with lid closed, brushing with sauce and turning occasionally, 25-30 minutes or until ribs are fork tender.
Oven Directions
Heat oven to 300°F. Line 15x10x1-inch baking pan with aluminum foil. Place ribs onto prepared pan; brush with sauce. Bake, brushing with sauce every 30 minutes, 2-2 1/2 hours or until internal temperature reaches at least 145°F and ribs are fork tender.

Mango BBQ Sauce
Add 1 tablespoon chopped jalapeño pepper along with the onion. Stir 1/2 cup chopped mango, 1 tablespoon honey and 2 teaspoons lemon juice in with remaining ingredients.
Chipotle BBQ Sauce
Stir 2 tablespoons chopped chipotle chiles in adobo sauce in with remaining ingredients.
Soy Ginger BBQ Sauce
Reduce Worcestershire sauce to 1 tablespoon. Omit salt. Stir 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon orange juice and 1 teaspoon freshly grated gingerroot in with remaining ingredients.
Balsamic BBQ Sauce
Reduce Worcestershire sauce to 2 tablespoons. Omit white vinegar. Stir 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar and 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard in with remaining ingredients.
Tip #1
Boiling the ribs until they reach 195°F helps break down the tough collagen in the meat and makes it tender, a process that would take several hours on the grill without boiling the ribs first. They then only need to be grilled a short time, greatly speeding up the process.
Tip #2
Ribs can be prepared up to 8 hours before grilling. Cover; refrigerate until grilling time. Grilling or baking time may be slightly longer for refrigerated ribs.
