Trisha Yearwood Spare Ribs Recipe

You start with a savory blend of soy sauce, brown sugar, and molasses that infuses the ribs with incredible flavor.
A key trick is to let the ribs marinate overnight for maximum tenderness.
The ribs are slow-cooked to perfection, making them fall-off-the-bone delicious!
I love this recipe because the rich sauce caramelizes beautifully, giving the ribs an irresistible sticky glaze.
Whether you're using a grill or an oven, these ribs always turn out amazing.
