Sweet & Sticky Greedy BBQ Ribs Directions

Rib Prep

1. Combine Rub Mix ingredients in a medium mixing bowl. Trim the spare ribs, removing the upper brisket bone and any excess fat; this will produce a St. Louis-style rib.
2. Rinse the ribs, season with Rub Mix, and then cover and refrigerate for 4 to 12 hours.

Sauce

1. Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a stockpot or large Dutch oven.
2. Bring to a boil over high heat, frequently stirring to prevent sticking.
3. Reduce temperature to low and simmer, uncovered, for at least 30 minutes.

Grilling

1. Indirect cooking in a barbecue pit is recommended to prevent burning.
2. Cook at 250 degrees F (curled side of ribs facing up) for the first 3 hours, then increase the temperature to 300 degrees F for the final 3 hours.
3. Baste the ribs only during the last 30 minutes of cooking to prevent the sauce from burning.
4. Remove from grill and baste again with sauce. Cut between the bones and serve.
