Barbequed Ribs

This recipe made my dinner not only delicious but also so simple. I switched sugar for brown sugar on the rub (which is what makes this dish so wonderful). I skipped making the sauce for a bottled version to save time. I never cooked a rack before because I thought it was so difficult to cook. My deli just lost a customer buying racks of ribs; Now, I can do it on my own.
