For the Spare Ribs

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Marinate the Ribs

    In a bowl, mix together minced garlic, chopped onion, paprika, cumin, olive oil, salt, black pepper, brown sugar, and white vinegar. Rub this mixture all over the spare ribs. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your BBQ grill to medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Cook the Ribs

    Place the marinated ribs on the grill. Cook for about 15-20 minutes on each side, basting with BBQ sauce during the last 5 minutes of cooking.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the ribs from the grill. Let them rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve with fries and white rice.
