Dinosaur BBQ Mutha Sauce

I guess I'll start. I made ribs this weekend with the Dinosaur BBQ Mutha sauce. The sauce is excellent but makes a TON. I rubbed the ribs with a rub and put them in a glass baking dish covered with foil for 4.5 hours at 225. Then at 4.5 hours I took them out and basted them with the BBQ about every 10 minutes for 30 minutes. They were excellent.
