This is the best recipe. We threw away all the other rib recipes we had filed away. People are always asking for "our" recipe. We use the dry rub on beef, pork, chicken, veggies and even in our baked beans. The sweet sauce is great for basting pulled pork and everyone loves the spicy sauce, which can be used on everything.

- 3 tablespoons Dry Spices

Preparation
- Place ribs in a large, shallow pan. Rub Dry Spices evenly over ribs. Cover and chill 3 hours.
- Prepare a hot fire by piling charcoal or lava rocks on one side of grill, leaving other side empty. (For gas grill, light only one side.) Place food rack on grill. Arrange ribs over unlit side.
- Grill ribs, covered with grill lid, over medium heat (300° to 350°) for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, basting every 30 minutes with Basting Sauce and turning occasionally. Brush ribs with Sweet Sauce the last 30 minutes.
