Essential Dry Rub For Ribs - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 ounces brown sugar
4 ounces kosher salt
2 ounces fresh ground pepper
1 ounce chili powder
1 ounce onion powder
1 ounce garlic powder
1 ounce ground cumin
1 ounce sweet paprika
1/2 ounce cayenne pepper

Preparation

Combine ingredients in a shaker jar with lid.
Apply dry rub liberally to rinsed and dried baby back ribs (membrane removed of course) covering completely.
Refrigerate overnight.
Reserve any left over for up to 3 months in a sealed container.
For that real \"wood cooked\" barbecue flavor we recommend plank cooking the ribs.
Soak a cedar plank in water for at least 30 minutes; place on the grill over low or indirect heat.
Cook the ribs slow and low until they are tender.
