Mix the rub ingredients together w/ a fork, be sure to break up the brown sugar. Remove the membrane on the bone side of the ribs if the butcher hasn't done so. This is really easy to do. Just jab a knife into the membrane; stick you finger underneath the membrane; run the finger along the rack and then pull it off. Rub the Rub on the ribs the night before. Leave Ribs in refrigerator overnight. I use a Weber, but if you have a smoker you know what to do. Prep the coals to where they are grey and set up grill for indirect heat. If using gas, use one burner..opposite to where the ribs are going. Maintain grill temp at 220F to 350F. Place ribs bone side down. If using charcoal, add your favorite soaked wood chips for smoking. Let the ribs sit for at least 2hrs. Check every 30 min for temp and charcoal levels. Next make the Mop sauce. Baste the ribs in the last hour, basting every 15 to 20min..I use this time to chat and have a few beers. Last 15 min, flip the ribs meat side down and let it sit, baste the back of the ribs.

Pull out of grill and let cool for 15 min. Eat w/ hands and 50 napkins. If you eat this culinary delicacy with a fork, you are committing heresy and should be excommunicated from the great church of BBQ. Let it be known that if your face and hand aren't covered with sticky goodness, then you should seek help and never be allowed to eat BBQ ever again. Seriously.
