Ingredients:
1 c. ketchup
1 c. beer
6 Tbsp. packed light brown sugar
1/4 c. hoisin sauce
2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp. rice vinegar
3 tsp. garlic powder
2 tsp. ground ginger
1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
2 slabs pork spare ribs, 3 lbs. each

Directions:
Prepare grill for indirect-heat cooking.  In pot, combine ketchup, beer, 3 Tbsp. sugar, hoisin sauce, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar and garlic powder.  Over medium-high heat, bring to a boil.  Reduce heat to medium; cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 15 minutes.

Combine ginger, cinnamon, salt and pepper with remaining 3 Tbsp. brown sugar and 2 tsp. garlic powder.  Rub over both sides of ribs.  Place ribs, meaty side down, on grill.  Cover; cook 15 minutes.  Turn ribs over.  Cover; cook until tender, about 2 hours, brushing with 1 c. sauce several times during the last 20 minutes.  Serve with remaining sauce.

No grill method: Preheat oven to 325 degrees.  Line large jellyroll pan with foil.  Place ribs on pan; rub both sides with spice mixture.  Roast until tender, about 2 hours, brushing with 1 c. sauce several times during the last 20 minutes.  Preheat broiler.  Broil until browned, about 3 minutes.
