Instructions
Grilled Beef Ribs
- Preheat grill to 350 degrees.
- Combine all dry rub ingredients and generously coat each rack of ribs.
- Grill the ribs on each side for about ten minutes; giving them a nice sear/crust.
- At this point you have some options. First, you can lower the grill temperature to 225-250 and cook for an additional two and a half hours over indirect heat. Another option, keep the grill temperature at 350, wrap the ribs in foil, and cook for two and a half hours over indirect heat. A third option, grill the ribs on each side, wrap them in foil, and bake in the oven for two and a half hours.
- Once the ribs are tender, let them rest for twenty minutes, then slather them in barbecue sauce and finish them on the grill.
Sweet and Spicy Barbecue Sauce
- In a small sauce pot, over medium heat, sauté the onion, garlic, and jalapeno until the onions have softened; about five minutes.
- Add all other ingredients to the pot and whisk them all together.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 45 minutes or until the sauce becomes thick.
- Remove from heat and let cool.
