Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

3 to 4 lb. pork loin back ribs
1/2 cup red currant jelly
1/3 cup hoisin sauce
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce

Steps:

Heat gas or charcoal grill. Cut ribs into serving-sized sections. Arrange ribs in layers in ungreased 12x8-inch (2-quart) microwave-safe dish. Cover with microwave-safe plastic wrap. Microwave on High for 15 minutes or until ribs are no longer pink, rearranging and turning ribs once during cooking.
Meanwhile, in small saucepan, combine all glaze ingredients. Cook and stir over medium heat until jelly is melted. Remove from heat.
When grill is heated, remove ribs from microwave; immediately place on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 6 to 8 inches from medium coals. Cover grill; cook 10 to 20 minutes or until ribs are browned, turning frequently and brushing with glaze during last 10 minutes of cooking time.
Bring any remaining glaze to a boil. Serve glaze with ribs.
