After one saucy bite of our fall-off-the-bone ribs, you will know why the foil packet is so important: It keeps the juicy in. The 15-minute grill at the end seals the deal.

Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 75 minutes
Serves 5 people

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp. paprika
  • 2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1-1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
  • 3 lb. pork baby back ribs
  • 1/2 cup apple juice
  • 1 cup Bull's-Eye Brown Sugar & Hickory Barbecue Sauce

Directions

  1. Heat grill to medium heat.

  2. Mix seasonings; rub onto both sides of ribs. Place half the ribs in single layer in center of large sheet of heavy-duty foil. Bring up sides of foil; double fold top and one end. Add 1/4 cup apple juice through open end of packet. Double fold remaining end to seal packet, leaving room for heat to circulate inside. Repeat to make second packet.

  3. Place packets on grate of grill; cover with lid. Grill 45 min. to 1 hour or until ribs are done. Remove ribs from foil; discard foil.

  4. Return ribs to grill; brush with 1/2 cup barbecue sauce. Grill 15 min., turning occasionally and brushing with remaining sauce.
