A delicious recipe for tender and flavorful baby back ribs, perfect for grilling or baking.
Preheat your grill to medium heat.
Ensure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
Mix the paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a bowl.
Use your hands to thoroughly combine the spices for an even mix.
Rub the spice mixture evenly over the ribs.
Let the ribs sit for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.
Place each rack of ribs on a sheet of aluminum foil. Add a splash of water to each packet and seal tightly.
Ensure the foil packets are sealed well to trap steam for tender ribs.
Grill the foil-wrapped ribs for 45-60 minutes, turning occasionally.
Maintain a consistent grill temperature for even cooking.
Carefully remove the ribs from the foil and place them directly on the grill. Brush with barbecue sauce and grill for an additional 10-15 minutes, turning and basting every 5 minutes.
Watch closely to prevent the sauce from burning.
Serve the ribs hot with your favorite sides.
Garnish with fresh herbs or a squeeze of lemon for added flavor.
