Steps
- Take the baby back ribs out of the package and blot them dry.
- Remove the membrane from the backside using a paper towel and jerk it off.
- Square up the ends of the ribs if desired, and trim any excess fat.
- Apply a light coat of yellow mustard to the back side of the ribs as a binder.
- Rub the AP rub (salt, pepper, garlic mix) onto both sides of the ribs in a light coat.
- Cover the ribs with your favorite barbecue rub on top, ensuring good coverage over the mustard layer.
- Flip the racks and repeat the process: apply a light strip of yellow mustard to the top side.
- Apply another light coat of AP salt, pepper, garlic mix to the top side.
- Repeat the seasoning process for the thick meaty side with a light coat of mustard followed by the seasonings.
- Preheat the propane grill and set the thermostat to 250°F.
- Place the ribs on the prepared cooking grates (sprayed with Pam).
- Cook the ribs, flipping them over after about an hour, to allow for even cooking and color development.
- After approximately two hours of cooking, apply a little more barbecue rub to both sides.
- Wrap the ribs in foil: Apply a little zero sugar barbecue sauce to the top side. Flip the ribs over and apply a little seasoning down the center of the back side. Pour a couple tablespoons of apple juice along the back.
- Close the grill lid, keeping the temperature at 250°F for tenderness.
- After about an hour in the wrap, check for tenderness by looking for bone pull (the meat should be tender and bones should start to separate).
- Remove the ribs from the foil. Create a small aluminum foil tray or 'rib boat' to hold the ribs.
- Sprinkle a light coat of dry seasoning on top of the unwrapped ribs to bring back color.
- Return the ribs to the grill for about 30 minutes to allow them to dry out and develop color.
- Serve the finished ribs.
