Steps

  1. Take the baby back ribs out of the package and blot them dry.
  2. Remove the membrane from the backside using a paper towel and jerk it off.
  3. Square up the ends of the ribs if desired, and trim any excess fat.
  4. Apply a light coat of yellow mustard to the back side of the ribs as a binder.
  5. Rub the AP rub (salt, pepper, garlic mix) onto both sides of the ribs in a light coat.
  6. Cover the ribs with your favorite barbecue rub on top, ensuring good coverage over the mustard layer.
  7. Flip the racks and repeat the process: apply a light strip of yellow mustard to the top side.
  8. Apply another light coat of AP salt, pepper, garlic mix to the top side.
  9. Repeat the seasoning process for the thick meaty side with a light coat of mustard followed by the seasonings.
  10. Preheat the propane grill and set the thermostat to 250°F.
  11. Place the ribs on the prepared cooking grates (sprayed with Pam).
  12. Cook the ribs, flipping them over after about an hour, to allow for even cooking and color development.
  13. After approximately two hours of cooking, apply a little more barbecue rub to both sides.
  14. 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.
  15. Close the grill lid, keeping the temperature at 250°F for tenderness.
  16. 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).
  17. Remove the ribs from the foil. Create a small aluminum foil tray or 'rib boat' to hold the ribs.
  18. Sprinkle a light coat of dry seasoning on top of the unwrapped ribs to bring back color.
  19. Return the ribs to the grill for about 30 minutes to allow them to dry out and develop color.
  20. Serve the finished ribs.
