Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat an outdoor gas grill for indirect heat, and lightly oil the grate. Heat one side of the grill to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
Step 2
Fill a small metal container with water. Cover with aluminum foil; make several slits in the foil. Place on the preheated side of the grill.
Step 3
Place ribs, bone-side up, on the unheated side of the grill; close the grill. Cook for 1 1/2 hours. Flip ribs and continue cooking until meat shrinks back from bones, about 1 1/2 hours more.
Step 4
Baste ribs with barbecue sauce. Transfer to heated side of the grill; cook for 2 minutes with the lid closed. Flip and baste second side with sauce. Cook for 2 minutes with lid closed. Flip and baste first side again with more sauce. Cook for 2 minutes with lid closed.
