Rib Ingredients

Method

Rib Preparation and Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ribs

    Start by rinsing the pork long end ribs under cold water. Pat them dry with paper towels. Trim any excess fat for a leaner bite.

  2. 2

    Season the Ribs

    In a small bowl, mix the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and brown sugar. Rub this mixture generously all over the ribs, ensuring they are well coated.

  3. 3

    Marinate the Ribs

    Once seasoned, wrap the ribs in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for deeper flavor.

  4. 4

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium heat (about 180-200°C or 350-400°F). If using a charcoal grill, set up indirect heat.

  5. 5

    Cook the Ribs

    Place the ribs bone-side down on the grill. Cook for approximately 2 hours, keeping the grill covered. Baste the ribs with BBQ sauce during the last 30 minutes of cooking.

  6. 6

    Add Apple Cider Vinegar

    In the last 10 minutes of cooking, mix apple cider vinegar with a bit of BBQ sauce and drizzle or spray it onto the ribs for an extra zing.

  7. 7

    Rest and Serve

    Once the ribs have cooked to a nice caramelized finish, remove them from the grill. Let them rest for 10-15 minutes before cutting into individual portions for serving.
