Heat your grill over medium heat; and place ribs on grill. (If you can’t grill, you can use broiler or just cook it on a stove. Please see note for the directions of broiler) Keep brushing spicy sauce we made earlier, and flip over as many times as you need to until sauce has only about 1 Tbs. left. It will look shiny and nicely chard. Remove from grill.
