BBQ Mustard Ribs

Baby back ribs are my favorite on the grill. We use hickory to give them that delicious smoky flavor and our homemade Mustard BBQ Sauce for a sweet and savory tang that you are going to find irresistible.

How to Make BBQ Mustard Ribs:

• Pat ribs dry with paper towels and place on a clean baking sheet. 

• Brush liberally with Mustard BBQ Sauce and allow to rest while you get the grill or smoker going with a 300° fire with hickory or pecan for the best smoke flavor. 

• Place the ribs, bone side down over indirect heat. 

• Cook for 1 1/2- 2 hours or until ribs reach a minimum of 145° and for the most tender ribs cook to 190°.

• Remove from grill and allow to rest 10 minutes before slicing. 

The homemade Mustard BBQ Sauce is sweet and savory with brown sugar, onion flakes and rosemary. It really caramelizes on the ribs for an amazing flavor combination. It just takes a few minutes to mix up this amazing sauce and you’ll be loving it on more than just these ribs!

For the Mustard BBQ Sauce you will need:

• Prepared Yellow Mustard
• Brown Sugar
• Worcestershire Sauce

We like to grill 2 racks of ribs at once so that we have them for an easy meal later in the week. Grilling on the weekend is my favorite kind of meal prep.

It’s just as easy to grill two racks of ribs or two smoked chickens as it is one. Then we have at least one or two meals that we can make from the extra on busy weeknights. 

What is the difference in baby back ribs and spare ribs?

Baby back ribs are more tender and and a little more lean than spare ribs but often cost a little more. Baby back ribs are from where the rib and spine meet after the loin has been taken out. 

Use either kind of ribs for this recipe, both are going to be flavorful, tender and delicious. We generally just pick up what is available when we go to the store, but baby backs are my favorite.
