Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 racks Pork ribs
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup BBQ sauce
Instructions
Preheat your grill to a medium temperature, around 275°F if it has a temperature gauge.
Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs by sliding a knife under it and pulling it off with your fingers or a paper towel for a better grip.
In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
Drizzle olive oil over both sides of the ribs and rub it in thoroughly.
Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the ribs and rub it in, ensuring they are fully coated.
Allow the ribs to rest at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes to let the rub absorb.
Once the grill is preheated, place the ribs meat-side up on the grill.
Cover with the grill lid and cook for approximately 2-3 hours, keeping the temperature consistent and turning the ribs occasionally for even cooking.
During the last 30 minutes of cooking, brush the ribs with BBQ sauce, turning occasionally and being careful not to burn the sauce.
Check for doneness by ensuring the meat is tender and pulls away easily from the bones.
Remove ribs from the grill and allow them to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Serve the ribs hot with additional BBQ sauce on the side if desired.
