This sweet, spicy, sticky BBQ sauce recipe is ideal for ribs, especially when slow-cooked on the smoker. It's my all-time favorite BBQ sauce and always a crowd-pleaser! Use it right away or store it in the fridge in an airtight container for several weeks. Brush it on ribs as they finish cooking for a delicious glaze.
