Classic Barbequed Spare Ribs

These are the ribs for people who believe the sauce should simmer, not squeeze from a bottle: country pork ribs cooked until tender, then finished in a from-scratch barbeque sauce of ketchup, Worcestershire, vinegar, brown sugar, chili powder and celery seed that thickens right in the pan. Two hours start to finish, six servings, and a sauce recipe you'll reuse on everything.
