How to Marinade Pork Spare Ribs

Taste the marinade as you go and adjust it to suit your tastes.

Pork spare ribs make a delicious main course. The best part of this meat is that it can be marinated in different ways. Barbecue spare ribs are always a favorite, but if you want to try something different, a honey garlic marinade might be for you. Try both of these marinades next time you cook for a group.
