not like most barbecue sauces you've tasted. It's sweet
yet sassy, with a touch of cinnamon that makes it
finger-licking good. Provide LOTS of
napkins!

to 3 rib portions
Water, to cover
1/4 cup/60 ml Watkins Meat

tender.
Meanwhile, prepare sauce by combining all
of the remaining ingredients in a medium saucepan.

heat and simmer, uncovered, about 15 minutes. Remove
