Honey BBQ Pork Ribs

Submitted by VIOLETISIS17 in TN

"I had seen a variation of this recipe on the Food Network's Alton Brown show "Good Eats" but didn't like the taste when finished; so I worked on it for about a month to get what the entire family enjoys. This can be left marinading for days in the fridge as well. You can also use short ribs, or the country style as well."
