# Directions:
01 - Remove the thin membrane from the bone side of each rack. Brush lightly with olive oil. In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, chili powder, and cayenne. Rub all over both sides of the ribs.
02 - Heat your grill/smoker to 120°C/250°F for indirect cooking. If using an oven, preheat to 140°C/285°F.
03 - Place ribs bone-side down. Grill or roast, covered, for 2 hours, turning once halfway.
04 - While ribs cook, make your sauces: combine all ingredients for each sauce in separate saucepans. Simmer each over medium-low heat for 10–15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Adjust seasoning to taste.
05 - After 2 hours, brush ribs generously with your choice of sauce (or a mix). Up heat to 190°C/375°F. Grill or bake for 20–30 minutes more, basting once. Ribs should be deeply glazed and very tender.
06 - Rest ribs loosely covered for 10 minutes. Slice into individual ribs.
07 - Arrange sliced ribs on a large platter or board. Serve each sauce in small bowls with spoons. Garnish with pickles, cornbread, herbs, and onions if desired.
08 - Serve immediately and enjoy with sides of your choice.
