How to Grill Sweet Garlic and Onion Ribs:

• Prepare a grill fire to 300° with hickory chunks for smoke flavor. 

• Remove ribs from packaging and pat dry with paper towels. Place on a baking sheet. 

• Spray or brush both sides of the ribs with olive oil. We bought this Oil Sprayer  for our Air Fryer Recipes and we use it more for grilling. It’s so handy.

• Mix rub together in a bowl by combining brown sugar, spices and salt. 

• Sprinkle with rub on both sides.

• More heavily on the meaty side. 

• Cook ribs over indirect fire with the grill lid closed about 1 hour 15 minutes.

• Check internal temperature with a digital thermometer and continue cooking until ribs reach between 195° and 200°. 

• Remove from grill to a sheet pan and allow to rest about 10 minutes before slicing.

• Slice ribs and serve immediately. 

How to Store and Reheat:

Wrap leftover ribs in plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate up to 4 days. Can be frozen up to 3 months if wrapped in several layers of plastic wrap plus a layer of foil. Be sure to label them with the date. 

Reheat ribs in a single layer in a baking pan in a 350° oven for about 10- 15 minutes or until heated through. 

What to Serve with Ribs:

Easy Potato Salad, Coleslaw, Deviled Eggs and Grilled Corn on the Cob are our favorite sides for ribs. I will admit that most of the time, everyone could care less about the sides if we are having ribs. It’s all about those smoky ribs!
