Instructions

Step 1

Prepare your ribs by removing the membrane from the back of the ribs, if not already done.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper to create your rub.

Step 3

Apply the rub generously on both sides of the ribs.

Step 4

Preheat your smoker or grill to 225°F (107°C). If using a grill, set it up for indirect cooking.

Step 5

Place ribs on the smoker or grill away from the direct heat. Cover and cook for about 4-5 hours, or until the ribs are tender and the meat pulls away from the bones.

Step 6

During the last 30 minutes of cooking, brush the ribs with BBQ sauce every 10 minutes to create a sticky glaze.

Step 7

Remove the ribs from the smoker or grill and let them rest for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
