3 lbs. pork spareribs

1 tsp. seasoned salt

1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

1/2 tsp. garlic powder

1 cup maple syrup

3 Tbsp. thawed orange juice concentrate

3 Tbsp. ketchup

2 Tbsp. soy sauce

1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

1/2 tsp. liquid smoke

2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard

1 tsp. curry powder

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 green onions, minced

1 Tbsp. toasted sesame seeds

Pre-heat oven to 350º.

Place ribs, meaty side up, on a rack in a greased 15 x 10-inch baking pan. Season with seasoned salt, pepper and garlic powder. Cover pan tightly with foil. Bake for 1 hour and 25 minutes or until tender; drain.

Meanwhile, combine maple syrup, concentrate, ketchup, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, mustard, curry, garlic and onions in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Lightly coat the grill rack with cooking oil. Grill covered ribs on medium heat for 15 to 20 minutes, brushing occasionally with glaze. Sprinkle with sesame seeds just before serving.
