Sweet and Spicy Barbecue Sauce
You can use any barbecue sauce you like, but for us, we like to cook up our quick sweet and spicy sauce — it only takes a few minutes. It combines ketchup, brown sugar, chili sauce (like Sriracha), and spices. We’ve shared how to make it in the recipe.
I like making a double batch of the sauce and keeping it in the refrigerator. It will last up to 5 days. The sauce is perfect with chicken, on a burger, or as a dip for fries.
We make a similar sauce to coat our brown sugar barbecue wings. Another option is this homemade barbecue sauce (it’s tangy and delicious!).

What to Serve With Ribs
We love these ribs. Here are some of our favorite dishes to serve alongside them:
- You can never go wrong with potatoes! Here’s our creamy potato salad or try this herby mayo-free version (love this one!).
- These crispy roasted potatoes and mashed potatoes are classic. Here’s our family’s favorite mashed potatoes or try mashed sweet potatoes.
- Pasta salad is a favorite around here. So many of our readers love this veggie-packed pasta salad, and I love this classic macaroni salad.
- Anytime I’m serving heartier meat dishes, I love serving them with a big salad. Throw your favorite salad greens into a big bowl and serve
- alongside one of our homemade dressings: Try honey mustard, creamy blue cheese, or try my favorite homemade ranch.
