Ingredients:
2 slabs pork spareribs
1/4 cup butter
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1/2 tablespoon minced garlic
1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup barbeque sauce
1/2 lemon, juiced
salt and pepper to taste

Method:
1. Place ribs in large skillet or roasting pan. Cover with lightly salted water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 1 hour. Remove from heat, and drain.
2. Prepare the sauce. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook the onion and garlic in butter until the onion is tender; remove from heat. In a blender, combine 1 cup water, vinegar, ketchup, barbeque sauce, and lemon juice. Pour in the melted butter mixture, and puree for 1 minute. Pour into a saucepan, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, add the ribs, turn down the fire and simmer for another 1/2 hour. Place the ribs and sauce in a roasting pan, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

3. Preheat grill for medium-high heat. Brush grill grate with oil. Grill ribs for 10 to 20 minutes, or until well browned, basting with sauce and turning frequently.
