Ribs like these are a great option for backyard barbecues and grills because they are naturally allergy-friendly. Lea & Perrins Worcestershire is actually gluten-free and soy-free (but check with your guests to ensure it is safe for them). And the other ingredients are naturally free of top allergens.
Pair these sweet BBQ ribs with allergy-friendly coleslaw and grilled corn (with salt, herbs and spices, not butter) for an all-around winning meal.
