BBQ Ribs

There are many ways to cook ribs, but this is my go-to way. Whether you're hosting a backyard cookout or craving a hearty meal, this recipe will leave everyone coming back for seconds!

Ingredients

BBQ Ribs

3 full Rack of pork ribs-3-4 pounds each (3-inch/down)
2 cup White vinegar
½ cup Paprika
¼ cup Garlic Powder
2 Tbsp Onion Powder
1 Tbsp Black pepper, freshly ground
2 Tbsp Kosher salt
¼ cup Brown sugar
⅓ cup Sugar
1 Tbsp Creole Seasoning
1 prepared recipe of Barbecue Sauce

Instructions

Place the ribs in a large roasting pan or baking dish and pour the vinegar over the ribs. Using your hand, rub all of the ribs with the vinegar and allow them to marinate for 1 hour. Drain the vinegar and dry each rack completely with paper towels.

Combine the spice mixture and coat the ribs completely. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Prepare the grill. Cook the ribs over indirect low heat for 2 1/2-3 hours or until they begin to pull away from the tips of the bones and the entire rack bends easily when held in the middle with a pair of tongs.

Yield: 6-8 servings
