Mom's "Sweet 'n Sours" Pork Ribs

Mom's "Sweet 'n Sours" Pork Ribs

My mom’s longtime sweet and sour spare ribs recipe that she learned from my grandmother who has long passed on. Combines soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, dry mustard, garlic, as well as a few other simple ingredients to make a delicious sauce for cut ribs. Great over rice, too — some say rice with this sauce is their favorite food! A Lechner family tradition.
