The Beer Fox says, “A powerhouse punch of zesty flavors make these ribs a lip-smackin’ delight. Juicy aromas arouse the senses through this masterful blend of honey and ale.”

Recommended Brew: Reudrich’s Red Seal Ale, North Coast Brewing Company, Fort Bragg, California USA

Style: American Amber/Red Ale – Copper-red hazy sunset in color – Sweet caramel malt backbone and citrus bitter hops create a smooth, medium-bodied brew with a pure, full aroma.

8 lbs. Spareribs, cut into serving pieces
3 C. Reudrich’s Red Seal Ale
1 C. honey
1-1/2 tsp. dry mustard
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons sage
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Place ribs in a large shallow pan. Blend Reudrich’s Red Seal Ale with the remaining ingredients and pour over ribs. Let stand in refrigerator 24 hours, turning at least once.

Remove ribs from marinade. Reserve the liquid to use as a glaze in grilling. Weave ribs on a spit or long skewers, or place flat on the rack of a hot charcoal grill, about 4 inches from heat. Grill, turning frequently and brushing with marinade, until richly brown and glazed, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
