*peel membrane from back of slab, rub ribs well and let flavors penetrate for 15 minutes
*bring all the braising liquid ingredients to a boil
*heat oil in a flying pan and lightly sear and brown the ribs (be careful not to burn the sugar too much from the rub)
*select a dish or pan suitable for oven-braising...place ribs in pan, covered half way in the liquid.  bring it back to a simmer, cover and place in the preheated oven
*cook covered in the oven until the meat is tender and just begins to fall off the bone,
*carefully remove from pan and reserve until ready to grill

*on a low to medium heat (you can use smoking wood if you like), grill the ribs covered without sauce to lightly mark, the brush sauce liberally on the ribs and finish.  serve with additional brush of warm sauce, or along side.
