Barbecued Ribs or Chicken

Peggy Waltman

This sauce is also good on Chicken

1 c. ketchup
1/4 c. oil
1/4 c. liquid smoke (Colgin)
2 dashes of soy sauce
2 c. Pace picante sauce
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 tsp. minced garlic
Country style spare ribs or chicken

Combine above ingredients and stir well.  Put ribs in pan and pour half of sauce over ribs.  Cover and cook at low heat (350) for 3 or 4 hours or until tender.  About 30 minutes before serving, drain off accumulated juices and put fresh sauce on top of ribs again.  Don't cover and resume cooking to glaze them.  Reserve some sauce to serve with.  If making a lot, I double the sauce recipe.
