How To Make b-b-q pork ribs

  • Step 1
    Mix all dry rub ingredients
  • Step 2
    Trim silver skin off pork ribs and pat dry. Rub all sides of ribs with rub mix and refrigerate for at least 2 hrs. Over night is great.
  • Step 3
    Put mop sauce ingredients in 3 quart sauce pan and simmer for 15 or 20 min. You can also make your own favorite sauce.
  • Step 4
    Sear both sides ribs on a hot grill for about 3 or 4 min. per side. Remove from grill an wrap each tightly in foil. Mop some of the sauce on each rib before sealing the foil wrap.
  • Step 5
    Set your grill for indirect cooking to maintain about 250 deg. Put wrapped ribs in grill and close. DO NOT OPEN for 4 to 5 hrs. Adjust grill to maintain 250 deg. as needed. Or you can put them into a 250 deg. oven for the same amount of time.
  • Step 6
    After the slow cook take the ribs out of the foil and put them on a medium hot grill. Mop generously with sauce on both sides and grill each side for about 5 min. per side. Be careful not to let the sauce coating burn.
  • Step 7
    Serve with your favorite B-B-Q sides and enjoy the fall off the bone goodness!
