2 1/2 c Water
1/4 c Vinegar
1 tb Sugar
3 ts Pepper
2 tb Butter
3 ts Salt
1/4 Chopped onion
1 Clove garlic, minced
1 ts Red pepper
2 ts Chili powder
1 ts Red pepper sauce
1 ts Dry mustard powder
3 tb Worcestershire sauce
Combine all ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Cool overnight, warm before using. Start basting meat with this at the beginning of the cooking process. Baste and turn until pork registers 170 degrees on a meat thermometer (takes about 20 minutes for country ribs.)
