Baked Spareribs With Bar-B-Q Sauce

After Teresa died, Margaret took over the cooking. One of her specialties was barbecued spare ribs served with sauerkraut.

4 pounds spareribs

Flour well and brown in skillet with plenty of butter

Make sauce of the following:

1 large bottle of ketchup

Fill the empty bottle with water and add to ketchup

Grind in a meat grinder (or Cuisinart):

1 large green pepper

1 large onion

Add to ketchup along with 2-4 T. horseradish.

(I would add a tablespoon or more of Worcestershire sauce)

Boil sauce for 10 minutes.

Put spareribs in baking pan, pour sauce over and bake in a low oven (probably 325 degrees) basting frequently. Add more water if needed. May take 3 to 4 hours.
