Authentic Barbecue is traditionally cooked in a pit or in a smoker for many hours. If you have neither the equipment or the time, try this brining method for a tasty alternative. I couldn't believe how easy it is!

Rinse ribs and remove fibrous material on back of ribs, if desired. Cut into 3 or 4 sections. Bring to boil in 6 qt. of water and simmer on low for about a half hour. Skim off scum if desired.
Let stand to dry for about 5 minutes.
Heat grill for direct heat.
Brush ribs with olive oil.
Sprinkle ribs with dry rub,salt and pepper.
Brush hot grates with oil and grill meat. Turn a few times until charred in spots, about 5-10 minutes. Brush with BBQ sauce the last few minutes, or just serve at the table.
