Steps:
- Turn the ribs bone-side up. Slip a paring knife between the thin membrane and the bone to loosen, then pull off the membrane. Mix the brown sugar, paprika, steak seasoning, cumin and oregano in a small bowl; rub all over the ribs. Place on a baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Preheat a grill to medium high and prepare for indirect grilling: For a gas grill, turn off one or two of the center burners and reduce the remaining burners to medium low. On a charcoal grill, bank the coals to the sides, leaving the center open; set up a drip pan to avoid flare-ups.
- Oil the grill grates. Place the ribs bone-side down, overlapping slightly if needed, on the cooler part of the grill (indirect heat). Cover and cook, rotating the rib racks once, until the meat is tender and pulls away from the bones, about 2 hours to 2 hours 15 minutes.
- Mix the honey, vinegar and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a small bowl. Transfer the ribs to direct heat. Brush with the honey mixture and continue to grill, uncovered, brushing with the honey mixture once more, until glazed, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into ribs.
ACADIA'S GRILLED BABY BACK RIBS
I have been preparing baby back pork ribs this way for a long time (29 years) and they always get great reviews. I have been doing it so long, I can't remember where it originated. You can use your favorite BBQ sauce on them, but I like Jack Daniels Honey Smokehouse.

Steps:
- In a large pot bring water to boil.
- While water is heating up, remove baby back racks from plastic.
- Turn the racks over and remove the membrane from the back. (It is a thin piece of membrane that covers the back of the ribs which can be removed by getting a knife in under it at one of the ends, and then grabbing it with your hand and pulling it all the way down the rack and off.).
- If you can't get the membrane off, it is edible.
- (LOL! I cooked the ribs with it on for years as I didn't know any better!).
- Now, cut the ribs apart.
- Places ribs in boiling water and bring back to a boil.
- Reduce to simmer for 1-hour.
- Remove throughly cooked ribs from pot and turn off stove.
- Place in a bowl and cover with BBQ sauce.
- Refrigerate for 2 hours.
- Heat up grill to high (gas) and then lower heat to medium.
- Place ribs on grill and coat each rib with BBQ sauce.
- (I use the sauce from the bottom of the bowl).
- Grill them for 15 minutes per side or until hot.
- Enjoy! Yum!
- Alternative: Can be broiled in oven instead of grilled for winter months.

Steps:
- Preheat a gas grill for high heat, or arrange charcoal briquettes on one side of the barbeque. Lightly oil the grate.
- In a small jar, combine cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Close the lid, and shake to mix.
- Trim the membrane sheath from the back of each rack. Run a small, sharp knife between the membrane and each rib, and snip off the membrane as much as possible. Sprinkle as much of the rub onto both sides of the ribs as desired. To prevent the ribs from becoming too dark and spicy, do not thoroughly rub the spices into the ribs. Store the unused portion of the spice mix for future use.
- Place aluminum foil on lower rack to capture drippings and prevent flare-ups. Lay the ribs on the top rack of the grill (away from the coals, if you're using briquettes). Reduce gas heat to low, close lid, and leave undisturbed for 1 hour. Do not lift the lid at all.
- Brush ribs with barbecue sauce, and grill an additional 5 minutes. Serve ribs as whole rack, or cut between each rib bone and pile individually on a platter.

Tips:
- Choose tender ribs: Select baby back ribs for the best texture and flavor.
- Prep the ribs: Remove the silver skin from the back of the ribs for a better result.
- Use a flavorful rub: Combine paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper for a classic BBQ rub.
- Marinate the ribs: Marinating the ribs helps tenderize and infuse flavor. Use a mixture of olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and spices.
- Grill the ribs over indirect heat: This prevents the ribs from burning and ensures they cook evenly.
- Baste the ribs: During the grilling process, baste the ribs with melted butter, BBQ sauce, or a mixture of both for added flavor and moisture.
- Cook the ribs until tender: The ribs are done when the meat pulls away from the bone easily.

Acadia's Grilled Baby Back Ribs is a delightful and flavorful dish that is perfect for backyard gatherings or special occasions. With careful preparation, marinating, and grilling techniques, you can create fall-off-the-bone tender and smoky ribs that will impress your family and friends.
