Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 250°F and place each rack of ribs on a square of aluminum foil. Sprinkle the ribs generously with salt, add a few sprigs of thyme to each, and then wrap well. Place the rib packets on a cookie sheet and bake for 3 to 4 hours, until the ribs are extremely tender. Allow the ribs to cool slightly in their packets before opening.
- To make the glaze, combine all of the ingredients in a large pot on medium-low heat. Allow to simmer, stirring every so often, for a few hours, until the sauce is nice and thick. Set aside.
- To bring the ribs and glaze together, do the following. Turn on the broiler (if you don't have a broiler, get the oven up to 450°F). Cut the rib racks into individual ribs, place them on a foil-lined cookie sheet or broiler tray, and brush them aggressively with the glaze. Pop them under the broiler and watch them carefully: all that sugar makes them burn very easily! You want the glaze to fuse with the ribs; it takes 3 to 4 minutes. If you're cooking the ribs in the oven, do so just until the glaze begins to bubble, 4 to 5 minutes. Serve the ribs hot with lots of napkins-trust me, you'll need them.

Tips:
- Choose the right ribs: Baby back ribs are ideal for this recipe as they are tender and flavorful. Spare ribs can also be used, but they may require a longer cooking time.
- Trim the ribs: Remove any excess fat or silver skin from the ribs. This will help the ribs cook evenly and prevent them from becoming tough.
- Marinate the ribs: Marinating the ribs in a flavorful mixture of spices and herbs will help tenderize them and infuse them with flavor. The marinade can be made with a variety of ingredients, such as soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and rice wine.
- Cook the ribs slowly: Cooking the ribs slowly at a low temperature will help them become fall-off-the-bone tender. The ribs can be cooked in the oven, on the grill, or in a slow cooker.
- Glaze the ribs: Glazing the ribs with a sweet and tangy sauce will add extra flavor and shine. The glaze can be made with a variety of ingredients, such as honey, brown sugar, ketchup, and apple cider vinegar.
