• Smoke ribs for 6 to 8 hours, adding wood chips to maintain a steady smoke (approximately one handful every 30 to 45 minutes). Ribs are done when crispy outside and tender inside. Remove from smoker, and set aside for 15 to 20 minutes before serving.

BODACIOUS GRILLED RIBS

Steps:

• 1. 1. Prepare grill for direct cooking. Cut ribs into 4- to 6-rib pieces. Spray 2 sheets (24X18 inches) aluminum foil with no stick cooking spray.
• 2. Combine paprika, basil, onion powder, garlic powder, red pepper and black pepper in small bowl.
• 3. Rub on both sides of rib pieces. Place half of ribs, in single layer, in center of each foil sheet.
• 4. Place 4 ice cubes on top of ribs. Double fold sides and ends of foil to seal packets, leaving head space for heat circulation. Wrap each foil packet with another sheet of foil. Place on baking sheet.
• 5. Slide packets off baking sheet onto grid over medium heat.
• 6. Grill, covered, 45 to 60 minutes or until tender. Carefully open one end of each packet to allow steam to escape.
• 7. Stir together BBQ sauce and preserves. *I use Kraft Honey BBQ Sauce. **I use homemade wild plum or apple or muscadine or grape.
• 8. Open packets; transfer ribs to grid. I just leave on the foil, so the BBQ grill doesn't get gunked up.
• 9. Brush with sauce mixture. Continue grilling 15 to 20 minutes, per side, brushing with sauce and turning often until glazed.
• 10. Enjoy!
