Barbecued Country Style Pork Ribs

I have made this recipe 3x times now to rave reviews. I usually trim the pork off the bones and serve. Guests don't know that it is the least expensive cut of pork that way. There never is any left overs when I make it. I save the broth, freeze it, then use it the next time rather than starting with plain water. I only reuse once.
