Smokin’ BBQ Ribs
Smokin’ BBQ Ribs
These Smokin’ BBQ Ribs are so good on the grill, with just the right amount of spicy-hot seasoning to live up to their name. Tender pork baby back ribs are rubbed with a cayenne pepper, chili powder rub and basted with a made-from-scratch BBQ sauce featuring chili powder, cayenne pepper, Tabasco sauce and Mexican oregano.
Directions
1
Preheat your grill to 250°F with direct and indirect heat zones.
2
Combine ketchup, vinegar, beer, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, wine, chili powder, butter, Tabasco sauce, garlic powder, black pepper, oregano, cayenne pepper and onions in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
3
In a small bowl, mix chili powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper.
4
Cut racks in half to give you 4 half-racks. Sprinkle front and back of ribs with dry rub and massage rub into meat. Place ribs upright in a rib rack.
5
Place rib rack on grill over indirect heat, close lid and cook until internal temperature reaches 180°F, using an instant-read thermometer, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Hot Tip
Monitor the temperature to ensure that it stays around 250°F.
6
Using a basting brush, liberally baste with BBQ sauce every 30 minutes.
7
Remove ribs from grill when finished and baste one final time.
