Method
- Remove the membrane from each rack of ribs.
- Combine brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, black pepper, and cayenne in a small bowl.
- Coat all sides of each rib rack with the dry rub; let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Set up the grill for indirect heat, aiming for a temperature of 250 to 275 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place the rib racks on the unlit side of the grill, bone-side down.
- Let the ribs cook undisturbed for the first two hours.
- After two hours, wrap each rack tightly in aluminum foil with a splash of apple juice or water and cook for another 90 minutes.
- In a small saucepan, combine barbecue sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, butter, and garlic powder. Warm over low heat.
- Unwrap the ribs and brush the glaze over both sides. Return them to the grill for the final 30 minutes.
- Test for doneness by ensuring the meat has pulled back from the bones and the thermometer reads 195 to 203 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the ribs rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
Serve with coleslaw, cornbread, or baked beans.
