Instructions

Mix all dry rub ingredients together.

Remove membrane from back of ribs. Season both sides thoroughly with rub, then let them sit, bone side up, for 20 minutes before cooking.

Preheat smoker to 275°. Place ribs on smoker and cook for two hours.

Pull two large sheets of foil, then sprinkle 1 TBS turbinado, a sprinkle of dry rub, and honey on foil in an area the size of the rib. Place rib on foil, meat side down, and sprinkle the top with turbinado, dry rub, and drizzle more honey. Wrap ribs into a packet, leaving enough space to pour 2-3 ounces purple grape juice in, then seal.

Continue to cook for 1.5 hours, then start checking doneness every 15 minutes by checking the ends of the bones. When rib is tender to your liking, remove ribs from foil and put on grill. Sauce, and allow sauce to set for 5 minutes, then remove and serve.
