Step One: prepare your meat. Remove the membrane from the back. Next, you need to a good rub. This rub that I used originally came from a family friend and we literally use it for everything! It's the best blend of spices and so good, I'm sometimes tempted to eat it myself (I haven't yet). Get the rub all over the ribs and be generous.

Step Two: prepare your grill. I love using our charcoal grill! It adds a nice flavor and it's easier for me to use. Get your charcoal ready to go! Then put your ribs on the grill, bone side down. The temperature of your grill should be around 225 degrees, so not very hot. If it's too hot, they'll burn and dry up. And now, you walk away! Yep, leave the ribs to cook for about 3 hours like this.

Step Three: add in flavor and moisture. Once your ribs have grilled for a bit and have browned a little it's time to add in some flavor! Grab two large sheets of foil and overlap them. Grab your ribs and place them bone side up so they don't rib the foil. Place the butter and brown sugar on top. Create a little pocket with the foil by wrapping up the sides. Pour in the apple juice and pinch the tops of the foil closed. Place your ribs back on the grill, same temperature, and allow them to cook for an additional 2 hours.

Step Four: The ribs by this point should be cooked through but we need to add a little basting. You don't have to add the sauce but it adds some extra good flavor! You'll know they are done if you lift them up in the middle and they ends droop loosely down from the middle. Remove the ribs carefully from the foil and place them bone side down again on the grill without the foil. Baste the ribs with the KC Masterpiece barbecue sauce. Allow them to cook for an additional hour.
