*BAKED SPARERIBS*

Category: Ribs

4 lbs slab of pork spareribs
1 tbsp onion powder and garlic powder
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

For the Barbecue Sauce:
1/2 cup fresh-squeezed lemon juice (about 2 large juicy lemons)
1 cup bottled barbecue sauce
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar

Preheat oven to 325. Select a large baking pan to fit ribs in one layer. Line with heavy duty foil. Place baking rack (a cake rack works fine) inside lined pan to keep ribs from resting on the bottom of the pan. Remove the thin membrane from the back side of the ribs if not already done by the butcher.
