Ive never tried to cook ribs myself but I love to order them when I go out for dinner. I guess Im just scared of stuffing them up. Are they hard to cook?
Here's a simple Dry Rub for Ribs:
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup paprika (not hot paprika just plain old paprika)
1/4 cup coarse ground black pepper
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
Mix those ingredients together in a Ziploc bag by shaking well. Then rub over the ribs, and on both sides. Light your barbecue, and if using charcoal place the coals only on one side. Grill the ribs using indirect heat for about an hour. Watch that the don't burn, if you're grill is hot they may cook too fast. We always place a can of water on the grill to add moisture.
Serve with a barbecue sauce or not.

I think I will try that dry rub. I have used dry rubs with brisket with great success, so it stands to reason it would be good for ribs as well.
My brother in law marinates them and then BBQ's them wrapped in foil. I've never had them, but his wife just goes on and on about them. Of topic: my mom had deep fried ribs once at a Christmas dinner. She thought they were wonderful.
There is a local restaurant in our place that serves "baby back ribs". I think they marinate first the rib and then grill it, coated with sauce. Tastes so good.
