Fill a small metal can or container with water. Cover with aluminum foil; make several slits in the foil with a knife. Place on the preheated side of the grill. This will help maintain moisture and prevent the ribs from drying out. (2 minutes)

Flip ribs and continue cooking until rib meat shrinks back from the bones, about 1 1/2 hours more. The meat should be tender and easily pull away from the bone. (90 minutes)

Baste ribs generously with barbecue sauce. Transfer to the heated side of the grill; cook for 2 minutes with the lid closed. (2 minutes)

Flip and baste the second side with sauce. Cook for 2 minutes with the lid closed. (2 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View
2 mins
Flip and baste the first side again with more sauce. Cook for 2 minutes with the lid closed. This final basting will caramelize the sauce and create a beautiful, sticky glaze. (2 minutes)
08 Step
Recipe View
Remove from grill, let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
For an even smokier flavor, add wood chips to a smoker box or wrap them in foil and place them on the heated side of the grill.
Feel free to experiment with different barbecue sauces to find your perfect flavor profile. A sweet and tangy sauce complements the pork beautifully.
If the ribs start to brown too quickly, lower the heat or move them further away from the direct heat source.

Apr 9, 2025I've made these ribs several times, and they always come out perfectly. The water trick really helps keep them moist.
