Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your grill to a steady low heat of 225°F (107°C).
  2. Remove the membrane from the back of the baby back ribs.
  3. In a bowl, combine apple cider vinegar, water, brown sugar, sea salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper to make the marinade.
  4. Marinate the ribs in the mixture for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
  5. Soak wood chips for 30 minutes if using for smokiness.
  6. Place the ribs bone-side down on the grill grate for 4-5 hours.
  7. Baste the ribs with BBQ sauce every 30 minutes in the last hour of cooking.
  8. Check doneness by seeing if the meat pulls away from the bone easily.
