2 cups brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup applesauce
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
In a heavy saucepan, mix applesauce, brown sugar, lemon juice, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic power and cinnamon. Over medium-high heat, bring the sauce to the boiling point and continue boiling for one to two minutes.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

I like a sweeter sauce on ribs but this was just a little too sweet maybe. The ribs were done perfectly though!
