Grilled Ribs Recipe

They need low heat for hours to really get nice and tender.

 Set Grill/Smoker to 225 degrees F (indirect heat on a grill)

Put an aluminum foil pan of 2 cups water, one cup apple juice in smoker (under grate in a grill)

Place ribs on cooking surface (meat side up) and use a spray bottle to coat with apple juice

Cook for 1 hour

If needed (using a grill) rotate ribs. Spray ribs with apple juice

Cook for 1 hour

Rotate ribs and/or spray with apple juice

Cook for 1 hour

Take ribs off of grill and loosely wrap them meat side down in heavy duty aluminum foil; create a tent over the ribs

Inside the foil spread a mixture of honey, Parkay squeeze margarine, and brown sugar; apply to both sides, also spray with apple juice

Cook for 2 hours, if needed (using a grill) rotate ribs at the 1 hour mark

Take ribs out of grill/smoker, unwrap, and liberally apply BBQ sauce to both sides

Place ribs back in grill/smoker, meat side up, and cook for 1 hour
