Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup maple syrup (preferably Grade B)
- 1/4 cup spicy brown mustard
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper (optional)
- 4 lbs. beef ribs
- 1 Tbsp. salt
Directions:
- If cooking in an oven, preheat oven to 350°F. (For grill, see instructions below.)
- In a bowl, combine maple syrup, mustard, vinegar, and ketchup, and cayenne (if using).
- Cut ribs into 4- to 5-inch lengths. Sprinkle lightly with salt and roast 1–1-1/4 hours. Pour off all fat. Baste with sauce and roast for another 30 minutes, basting and turning every 5 to 6 minutes. Let sit 5 minutes. Baste one last time and serve.
- If cooking on the grill: Set it up for moderate indirect heat, set the ribs away from the heat source, and cook, covered, for the times indicated.
