- 4 lbs pork back ribs (remove membrane)
- 3 TBSP light brown sugar
- 2 TBSP smoked paprika
- 2 TSP onion powder (we use a Pampered Chef onion mix)
- 2 TSP kosher salt
- 1 TSP garlic powder
- 1 TSP dried thyme
- 1/2 TSP cayenne pepper
- 1/3 cup barbecue sauce
- 1/3 cup cider vinegar
- Preheat over to 275 degrees
- Mix together brown sugar, smoked paprika, kosher salt, onion powder, thyme, and cayenne pepper
- Remove membrane from the ribs
- Rub mixture into the ribs, covering all sides but mostly on meat side
- Wrap tightly in aluminum foil, check for holes and seal ends by folding and curling up
- Place on baking sheet with rib meat side down
- Fill the bottom of the pan with water
- Bake for 3 hours, checking each hour that there's still water
- Meanwhile, mix barbecue sauce and cider vinegar together for mop sauce
- During the last 15 minutes preheat your grill for indirect heat
- Remove foil and transfer to grill, bone side down for 15 minutes
- Periodically brush with mop sauce
- You can make extra mop sauce for dipping if needed
