Grilled Country-Style Pork Ribs Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 pound country-style pork ribs
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• Blackened Spice Rub, to taste (See Cook’s Tip)
• Flaky finishing salt, to taste, to taste

Directions:

1. Rub pork ribs all over with a thin layer of mustard. This will help the spices stick to the meat.
2. Season all over with spice rub. For best results, do this a day ahead. Wrap ribs tightly so that the spices and salt can penetrate the meat.
3. Heat grill on high. Grill ribs about 2 to 3 minutes per side, until a probe thermometer entered into the thickest part reads 145°F. Each side of the ribs should be well caramelized.
4. Remove pork from grill and let rest 5 minutes on a cutting board. Slice thinly against the grain. Sprinkle with flaky salt.
5. Cook’s Tip:
6. Due to their higher fat marbling, country-style ribs hold up well to more complex spice rubs such as Cajun blends or blackened spice. Use your favorite one but be sure to pick a rub with minimal sugar. The high heat needed for the fat to render tends to burn sugary rubs.
