Ingredients

4 1/2

lb pork loin back ribs

1

teaspoon salt

1

teaspoon pepper

1

cup ketchup

1/2

cup water

1/3

cup packed brown sugar

1/4

cup white vinegar

1

tablespoon celery seed

1/2

teaspoon red pepper sauce

1/2

teaspoon liquid smoke, if desired

Preparation

Heat oven to 325°F. Cut ribs into serving pieces; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place ribs in 15x10x1-inch pan. Cover with foil; bake about 2 hours 30 minutes or until tender.

Meanwhile, in 2-quart saucepan, mix sauce ingredients. Heat to boiling over medium heat, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to low; simmer uncovered 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Heat gas or charcoal grill for indirect cooking as directed by manufacturer.

Place pork on unheated side of two-burner gas grill or over drip pan on charcoal grill. (If using one-burner gas grill, cook over low heat.) Cover grill; cook 15 to 20 minutes, brushing with sauce every 5 minutes, until pork is no longer pink and meat begins to pull away from bones. Discard any remaining sauce.
