The Best Grilled Ribs

1. 1

   Stir together brown sugar, salt, paprika, garlic powder, dry mustard, and pepper in a small bowl.

2. 2

   Rub ribs with olive oil, and coat evenly with brown sugar mixture, pressing to adhere. Stack ribs together, and wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Place on a baking sheet, and chill 8 hours. Remove plastic wrap, and let ribs stand at room temperature 30 minutes before grilling.

3. 3

   Preheat a gas grill to medium (350u00b0F to 400u00b0F) on 1 side; keep other side unlit. Place rib slabs, meaty side up, on oiled grates over unlit side of the grill, stacking 1 on top of another.

4. 4

   Grill, covered, for 2 hours, rotating bottom slab of ribs to top of stack every 40 minutes. Reduce grill temperature to low (250u00b0F to 300u00b0F); unstack rib slabs, and place side by side over unlit side of grill. Grill ribs, covered, until meat is tender and starts to separate under slight pressure and tips of the bones are exposed about 1/2 inch, about 30 minutes. Remove ribs from grill, and let rest 10 minutes before serving.
