Ingredients

  • Tbsp pepper black
  • 0.5 cup brown sugar 
  • teaspoons cayenne 
  • 0.5 teaspoon celery seed 
  • teaspoons cumin 
  • teaspoon mustard dry
  • Tbsp garlic powder 
  • 0.5 teaspoon oregano dried
  •  spare rib racks 
  • teaspoons salt 
  • 0.3 cup paprika sweet

Equipment

  • grill

Directions

  1. Mix all the dry ingredients together. Rub them all over the ribs and, if you have time, set them in the fridge overnight. 2 Get your grill or smoker going. You want pretty low heat, about 200-220°F if you can measure it. Make sure you have a spot to put the ribs that is not directly over the heat source.
  2. Lay the ribs down. They should not sizzle. If they do, cool the grill down until the ribs no longer sizzle when placed down. Cover the grill or smoker and walk away for an hour.3 Every hour or so after that, turn and rotate the ribs so they cook evenly. You should not have to baste them if you do this: The fat in the ribs will do the basting for you. Depending on how hot your set-up is and at what stage of doneness you like your ribs, they will be done in 4-8 hours.
