Ingredients
  

  • 2 racks Baby Back Ribs
  • 6 tablespoons Rib Rub
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Celery Salt
  • BBQ Sauce

Instructions
 

  • Rinse and remove silverskin from the ribs, and pat dry.
  • On a large baking sheet, lay a large piece of foil out, enough to fold over and enclose the ribs.
  • Lay ribs on a baking sheet and rub the spice rub on both sides of the ribs.
  • Fold the foil and seal so that the ribs can steam within the foil.
  • Cook ribs for 3 hours at 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Once cooked, pre-heat broiler/grill to medium heat. Pull back the foil so the ribs are exposed, and baste the meaty side of the ribs with BBQ sauce.
  • Place the ribs, meaty side-up, and grill/broil for 5-10 minutes until the sauce has thickened and crisped slightly. If you don’t like your sauce caramelized, once coated, return the ribs to the oven for 20 minutes, uncovered.
