    Apricot Ginger BBQ sauce

    I've been looking for a sauce recipe to go with my "Hawaiian" ribs. There's ginger in my rub, pineapple juice in my brine, and pineapple slices garnishing the ribs. Gonna try this sauce recipe but replace the apricots w/ pineapple. Might reduce the heat a bit but it sounds delicious. Thanks!
