  4. Arrange ribs on a baking sheet covered with foil, meaty side up. Roast for about 2 hours, until tender. Baste ribs with honey mixture during last 15 minutes of cooking. Remove from oven and baste again with honey mixture. Preheat a grill. Grill ribs over moderately high heat for 4 minutes, basting with Worcestershire sauce. Transfer racks to a cutting board and cut into individual ribs. Serve with remaining Worcestershire sauce.
