     3/4  teaspoon      dried thyme
   2      cups          water
     3/4  teaspoon      black pepper
   1      cup           ketchup
     3/4  teaspoon      white pepper
   1                    onion; minced
   2      tablespoons   paprika
   1      teaspoon      celery seed
   2      teaspoons     dry mustard
                        salt to taste

Preparation:

Prepare the rub: Combine all the ingredients in a small bowl. Store the mixture in an airtight container for up to four months. There's no need to refrigerate it. To use the rub: Massage it into the meat thoroughly the night before you plan to grill or bake. Wrap the meat well in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator until cooking time, so the flavors will be absorbed into the meat. Cover and bake 5 hours at 275. Drain off grease. Set aside. Mix all ingredients for sauce and boil 15 minutes. Pour sauce over meat, bake uncovered for one additional hour
