Oh Canada Grilled Spare Ribs

Directions

1. Remove ribs from packaging, rinse, and pat dry.

2. Remove the silver skin from the backside of the ribs.

3. In a small bowl, combine sugar and Oh Canada and blend until evenly mixed.

4. Pull a large sheet of plastic wrap out of the roll and lay ribs top side up in the middle of the wrap.

5. Heavily season with the Oh' Canada mixture making sure to press into the ribs. Flip the ribs over and repeat with remaining rub. Tightly wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 12-18 hours.

6. Once cure has set, pre-heat grill to 400 degrees if using charcoal grill making sure to create and indirect heating zone.

7. If using gas grill, heat to 400 degrees but leave 1 zone of your grill off for indirect heat.

8. Once grill is hot, remove ribs from plastic wrap and sear top side on the grates for 6-8 minutes or until a light char forms across the surface. Flip and repeat with the bottom side of the ribs.

9. Remove ribs from the direct hear and move to the indirect zone. Lower the temp to 300-350 degrees and maintain heat for 2-2.5 hours. Rotating ribs 180 degrees every 20 minutes to promote an even cook. Once ribmeat pulls away from the bones and the ends of the bones start to darken to a bronze-brown, use the slack check or thermometer to check done ness. Temp should be 190 degrees when done, slack check is grabbing the ribs with tongs from the last four thickest bones and checking the bend. If the slab bends heavily without tearing, you are almost there. Increase heat on the hot zone to 425-450 degrees and sear ribs on both sides for the final time.

10. Remove from the heat and wrap in plastic wrap and foil and let rest for 20 minutes to an hour. Remove from wrap and slice between the bones for individual ribs and serve.
