Apply the Rub to the Ribs:
- Generously rub the mixture onto your pork ribs, making sure to coat them thoroughly. This step is where all the flavor magic begins! 🎩✨

Cooking Options:
-
Oven Method:
- Preheat your oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit (120 degrees Celsius).
- Place the ribs on a broiler pan, meat side down, and let them bake for 2 hours. This slow cooking process allows the flavors to seep into the meat.
- After 2 hours, wrap the ribs tightly in foil with a mixture of apple and grape juice. This helps to keep them moist and adds a touch of sweetness.
- Continue baking for another 2 hours. The ribs should be tender and nearly falling off the bone when done.
-
Grill/Smoker Method:
- If you have a Traeger smoker, lucky you! Preheat your smoker to 250 degrees Fahrenheit (120 degrees Celsius).
- Place the ribs on the smoker, meat side up, and let them smoke for 2 hours. This infuses a delightful smoky flavor into the meat.
- After 2 hours, remove the ribs and wrap them tightly in heavy-duty foil with 1/2 cup each of apple juice and grape juice, meat side down.
- Return the foil-wrapped ribs to the smoker and continue cooking for an additional 2-3 hours. The ribs are ready when they are tender and practically falling off the bone. 🍖🔥

-
Finishing Touch:
- Once the ribs are done cooking, take them out of the oven or smoker.
