Alternative to bbq sauce.

mjk412

My wife does not care for ribs. However the first ribs I made on the egg she really liked. But, she didn't care for the bbq sauce I brushed on them. 
What else can I brush on the ribs as an alternative for her?

Can't you leave them dry and let her sauce them if she wants them sauced and you can sauce the ones you're eating with what you like?  There's a ton of different BBQ sauce options out there just might have to find the one she likes.  As for alternates you have cider vinegar, an apple glaze could work, or some sort of mop with apple juice, water, vinegar, etc. to get some moisture on the outside.  I leave my ribs pretty dry for the most part so people can sauce them how they want and it's usually a hit.  My wife likes to pull the meat off the bone and dip it into sauce herself.

+1 on leave them dry and have different sauces on the side.

Too much sauce always reminds me of this:

What about a guava glaze or a sweet thai chili sauce?

Take a little Heinz 57 and mix with some honey. Use as a glaze on he ribs. Good stuff for a change of pace!

I've made ribs using DP Jamaican Firewalk and made a peach, mango chutney in lieu of sauce.

i put the warmed sauce on the plate and drag the ribs thru as needed, sometimes sauced glazed ribs is just too much
