My Memphis Dry Ribs
- 1 rack pork spare ribs (St Louis cut or full rack)
- 1 TBSP Brown Sugar
- 1 TBSP Salt (table salt)
- 2 tsp Paprika

- 12 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 cup apple juice.
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs.
- Mix dry ingredients and season ribs "generously".
- Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 24 hours.
- Set up your grill for Indirect Heat with unlit charcoal.
- Add hot charcoal from a chimney starter and place a drip pan in the middle, add water to the pan.
- Place ribs on the grill over the drip pan and add wet hickory wood chips directly to the fire.
- Smoke at about 275F to 300F.
- Mix mop sauce and place in a spray bottle.
- Spray the ribs about every 15 minutes with a mop sauce and add more hickory wood chips as needed.
- The total cooking time of the ribs is about 2 & 1/2 to 3 hours (or longer).
- Keep cooking.

- When done cooking "gently remove" the grill and cool 10 to 15 minutes before carving and serving.
- If served with baked beans and coleslaw it would be a meal fit for a king.
