Steps:
- BRINE: Combine salt, brown sugar, black peppercorns, hot red pepper flakes, bay leaves and hot water in a large bowl. Stir to dissolve sugar and salt. Add wine and ice water, stir to combine. Place ribs in a large, non-reactive baking dish. Pour brine over ribs, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 4-6 hours. Remove ribs from brine, rinse well under cold running water and pat dry with paper towels. (Brined ribs may be wrapped in plastic and refrigerated overnight.)
- SPICE RUB: Heat a heavy, dry saucepan on medium high. Add coriander, mustard seeds and whole peppercorns and toast, shaking pan, until fragrant. Grind toasted spices in a spice grinder or small coffee grinder. Transfer to a small bowl and stir in salt, garlic powder, thyme, oregano and granulated sugar.
- RIBS: Rub both sides of rib slabs with seasoning rub and let stand for 30 minutes at room temperature. Preheat a gas grill to medium high and lightly oil grill rack to prevent sticking. Place ribs on grill, meat side down, and grill covered for 10 minutes, checking frequently and reducing heat slightly to control excessive flame-ups. (A little bit of charring will give the ribs nice flavor but you don't want to blacken them completely). Turn ribs and grill covered until cooked through - about 10 minutes more. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- For the rub: The day before cooking, mix the turbinado sugar, salt, paprika, chili powder, granulated garlic, onion powder, ground cumin, ground mustard, cayenne pepper and black pepper together.
- For the ribs: Take a slab of ribs and turn over so the curved side is up. Using your fingernail or a knife, pry under the membrane until you can put your finger under it and then pull it off.
- Sprinkle this side of the ribs with about 1 tablespoon rub, and then about 1 tablespoon yellow mustard. Use the mustard to help evenly distribute the seasoning. Turn the ribs over and repeat the process. Cover and store in the refrigerator overnight.
- To cook, start a smoker and bring the temp to 200 degrees F. Use apple or cherry wood chunks to provide smoke and flavor. Place the ribs in the smoker, curved side down. Smoke for 2 hours at 200 degrees F, and then raise the temperature to 250 degrees F for about 2 1/2 hours. Check for tenderness by testing if the bones will pull apart with a slight bit of pressure. If they are still tough, allow to cook for another 30 minutes.
- Remove from the smoker. For dry-style ribs, sprinkle with about 1 tablespoon rub. For wet-style ribs, glaze with the BBQ sauce.
