Barbequed Baby Back Ribs

Who doesn't love ribs.  It is the perfect meal for a rainy July 4th.  We topped off the ribs with one of my new favorite sauces Kramer's BBQ Sauce.  I will be trying this sauce on chicken this weekend and will provide feedback then.

Ingredients:

2 racks Baby Back Ribs
Yellow mustard
Your favorite rub
Kramer's BBQ Sauce (a good sauce that also comes in a very cool beer bottle)

Rub:
3/4 cup paprika
1/4 cup ground black pepper
1/4 cup salt
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 teaspoons cayenne
Mix the spices thoroughly in a bowl. Store covered in a cool, dark pantry. Makes about 2 cups.


Using a meat thermometer or dull knife, slide the tip under the membrane covering the back of each rack of ribs. Lift and loosen the membrane until it breaks, then grab a corner with a paper towel and pull it off.

Allow the ribs to stand at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before grilling. Coat ribs with your favorite rub.  I always use Wild Willy's Rub (from the Smoke and Spice cookbook).  It is a staple around our house.




Cook for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, until the meat is pulling away from the bone. Brush on the BBQ a couple of times in the last 15 minutes.



Allow the ribs to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing
