Time 5h10m

Yield 4 racks of ribs, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup water
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup mustard
1/2 cup smoked paprika
1/4 cup chili powder
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons peach flavored Jello gelatin
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
6 lbs pork baby back ribs
1 cup apple juice
1/2 cup honey
4 ounces butter
aluminum foil, 8 twelve inch sheets
1/2 cup barbecue sauce, your favorite (store-bought)
1/4 cup apricot preserves
1/4 cup water

Steps:

Combine first 9 ingredients and rub into the baby back ribs.
Grill ribs over low, indirect heat for 2 1/2 hours.
Meanwhile, combine apple juice, honey, and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until butter melts.
On each of 4 aluminum foil sheets, divide butter mixture.
Place a rack on each buttered foil sheet, meaty side down; crimp to form packet and wrap with an additional foil sheet.
Still using indirect heat, grill packets, meaty side down to 1 hour.
Unwrap packets and grill, meaty side up, 1/2 hour.
Meanwhile, stir together BBQ sauce, apricot preserves and water; brush ribs (still meaty side up) and grill another 20 minutes (if you like a little char, you could place the ribs over direct heat for a couple of minutes only).
Remove ribs to cutting board and cut into individual ribs, brush with apricot glaze and serve.
