These saucy bbq ribs are going to be on the menu here all summer long.
I’m so happy to see grilling season again and even though the weather here is supposed to be absolute garbage this weekend, these ribs are so good that I’m still willing to send my husband outside to grill them anyway. It’s worth it. My wine and I will cheer him on from the house.
Friends, these ribs are fantastic. And this sauce. It is so, so delicious. I’m thinking about making a big batch and keeping it on hand all summer long because I can’t think of what it wouldn’t be good on! Chicken, flank steak, cauliflower… I’m planning to try everything! It’s sweet, spicy and the ginger just makes it pop. It also takes just minutes to make, so really, why wouldn’t you try?
