Ribs with Plum Sauce

I found the recipe for this tangy-sweet basting sauce when a surplus of plums sent me searching for new ideas to use all the fruit. In summer, I like to finish the ribs on the grill, brushing on the sauce, after first baking them in the oven. — Marie Hoyer, Hodgenville, Kentucky

    I make this often at our house. Except, I use whatever roast I have instead of the spareribs.

    I made with apricot preserves. My husband and I love it. I made it so many times.
