Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ribs

    Remove the membrane from the back of the pork ribs using a sharp knife. This helps the marinade penetrate better.

  2. 2

    Make the Marinade

    In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, brown sugar, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, apple cider vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce until fully combined.

  3. 3

    Marinate the Ribs

    Place the ribs in a large zip-top bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the ribs, ensuring they are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium heat, about 180-200°C (350-400°F).

  2. 5

    Prepare the BBQ Sauce

    In a saucepan, combine ketchup, honey, soy sauce, mustard, and liquid smoke. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes.

  3. 6

    Grill the Ribs

    Remove the ribs from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Place the ribs on the grill bone side down. Grill for about 1.5 to 2 hours, turning occasionally, and baste with BBQ sauce during the last 30 minutes of grilling.

  4. 7

    Check for Doneness

    The ribs are done when the meat is tender and pulls away from the bone easily. You can check with a meat thermometer; the internal temperature should reach about 85°C (185°F).

  5. 8

    Serve

    Remove the ribs from the grill and let them rest for 10 minutes. Cut into portions and serve with extra BBQ sauce on the side.
