Taste of the Past

Maxine Troxell

Summer is the ideal time to fire up the grill and enjoy your meal outdoors. Whether it’s hot dogs, hamburgers, chicken, or ribs, everything tastes better on the grill. I was looking for some old recipes, and I found this recipe for Texas Honey Sweet & Sour Ribs in my Aunt Erma’s Run of the Mill cookbook. I Hope you enjoy this recipe.
