Delicious Sticky BBQ Ribs Recipe

These BBQ ribs are slow-cooked to perfection and slathered in a smoky homemade sauce. The recipe takes about 3 hours from start to finish and serves 4 people.

Ingredients

• 2 racks of pork ribs
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 cup ketchup
• 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
• 1 tablespoon mustard
• 1 tablespoon honey

Instructions

1. Prepare the Ribs: Preheat your grill to medium heat. Rub the ribs with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper.
2. Make the Sauce: In a saucepan, combine ketchup, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, mustard, and honey. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Grill the Ribs: Place the ribs on the grill, bone side down. Cook for about 2 hours, turning occasionally, until the meat is tender.
4. Glaze the Ribs: During the last 30 minutes of cooking, brush the ribs with the smoky sauce, turning frequently to caramelize the sauce without burning.
