Ingredients
- 2 racks baby back ribs, back membrane removed
- Terrific 10 Rub
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1 cup Mop Sauce
- 3 cups wood chips for smoking, soaked
- ½ bottle barbecue sauce
Instructions
- Pat ribs dry. Apply a generous amount of rub to both sides of the ribs (4 to 5 tbsp). Transfer to an aluminum pan and refrigerate 30 min to 4 hr until rub looks moist. Stir mustard and 1 tablespoon rub into Mop Sauce; set aside.
- Heat grill to medium low (250°F) for indirect cooking and arrange smoker box or wood chips in grill. Place ribs in the pan on grill away from heat. Cover grill and cook, basting gently with Mop Sauce after 30 min and every 20 to 30 min until ribs are tender, 3 ½ to 4 hr.
- Ten minutes before removing ribs from the grill, baste with barbecue sauce. Remove ribs from grill and let rest 10 min, then cut and serve with more sauce.
Notes
The secret to KC-style ribs is mopping and wood chips. The mop sauce soaks in as the ribs cook, making them melt-in-your-mouth good! Wood chips add that authentic smoky flavor.
