Barbeque Sauce: Combine ingredients in a large saucepan. Bring
to a rolling boil, reduce heat and simmer 1 1/2 hours, stirring
every 10 minutes or so. Pour into sterilized canning jars, seal
and let stand 2 to 6 weeks before use. Dry Rub: Mix ingredients
together thoroughly. Preparation: Sprinkle dry rub liberally on
ribs. Allow ribs to stand 20 to 30 minutes at room temperature
until the rub appears wet. Prepare a smoker for long, slow (230
degree) indirect cooking, using hickory chips or other hardwood
chips for extra flavor. Cook ribs, bone side down, for 2 hours
at 230 degrees in a smoker using indirect heat. Turn and cook 2
more hours. Turn and cook one more hour. During the last 15
minutes, baste with barbeque sauce diluted by half with water.
Serve ribs with warmed, undiluted sauce on the side.
