Recipe View Carefully remove the ribs from the foil packet. Place the ribs directly on the grill grate and continue cooking for approximately 30 minutes, basting frequently with the remaining sauce, until they are beautifully caramelized and cooked through. (30 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of apple cider vinegar or a dash of smoked paprika to the barbecue sauce mixture.
If you don't have access to an outdoor grill, you can bake the ribs in a preheated oven at 325°F (160°C) for approximately 2-2.5 hours, or until tender.
Ensure the internal temperature of the ribs reaches 190-203°F (88-95°C) for optimal tenderness and doneness.

    I added a little bit of brown sugar to the sauce for extra caramelization, and it was amazing!

    Next time I will add some chopped apple to the sauce for more texture.
