| What to do |
- In a small bowl combine the rub ingredients.
- Trim the ribs of any excess fat. Press the rub into the meat, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 8 to 12 hours.
- Allow the ribs to stand at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before grilling. Sear them over direct medium heat (350°F to 450°F), with the lid closed as much as possible, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes, turning once. Transfer to a heavy-gauge aluminum pan, large enough to hold the ribs in one layer. If necessary, cut the ribs into smaller sections.
- In a medium saucepan whisk the sauce ingredients. Bring to a boil over high heat. Pour the sauce over the ribs and tightly cover with aluminum foil.
- Grill the ribs over indirect medium heat, with the lid closed, until very tender, 1-1/2 to 2 hours, turning once.
- Remove the ribs from the pan and cut into one- or two-rib pieces. Skim off any fat from the sauce and season with salt and pepper. Serve the ribs hot with the sauce on the side.
