Categories     Pork

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/4 cup dark brown sugar
4 teaspoons garlic powder
4 teaspoons ancho chile powder
3-4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 cup apple cider
1/4 cup apple sauce
1/4 cup honey
2 Tbsp cider vinegar
2 racks baby back ribs
1 cup Mom's barbecue sauce (replace Tobasco and minced onion with habanero hot sauce)

Steps:

  • In a bowl, mix 1/4 cup of the sugar with the garlic powder, chile powder, salt, black pepper, celery salt, cayenne, cinnamon and white pepper. Transfer 1 tablespoon of the spice mix to a medium bowl and whisk in the cider, apple suace, honey and cider vinegar. Pull the membrane off the underside of each rib rack using a towel to grasp the corner. On a rimmed baking sheet, rub the ribs with the remaining spice mix. Grill over indirect heat (ideally with applewood chips to smoke) for 3 1/2 hours. Mop with the cider mixture during the last hour of cooking, about every 15 minutes. Brush with the barbecue sauce during the last few minutes of cooking. Cut between the bones and serve with remaining BBQ sauce on the side.
