3/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup rice vinegar
1/2 cup tomato paste
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

Directions
Mix the sugar and water in a pan and simmer until the sugar dissolves. Add the remaining ingredients and simmer on low for 30 minutes.Paint the sauce on your ribs with a brush. One layer is all that is needed. If you wish, put the sauced ribs over high heat to caramelize the sugars, but watch it carefully so they doesn?t burn. For a festive touch, grate some orange zest on top. Makes a bit more than 2 cups of sauce.
