These ribs taste like the ones you get at chinese food restaurants.

    Melt shortening in an electric skillet; brown the ribs in shortening until golden brown. Mix remaining ingredients and pour half over ribs.

    To use oven instead of electric skillet: Brown ribs in frying pan and transfer to a 9“x13” pan or a roasting pan. Follow same instructions except cook in 400 degree oven. Cover pan with a lid or foil while baking.

notes

Have the butcher cut the ribs in half so they are short like at the restaurant.
