Bar B Q Ribs

**For the Ribs:**

1. Preheat your BBQ pit to medium heat (about 250°F to 300°F).

2. Generously sprinkle the meat tenderizer on the bone side of the ribs to help break down the connective tissues, leading to more tender meat.

3. Liberally season the meat side of the ribs with the apple wood rib rub, making sure to cover the entire surface evenly.

4. Place the ribs on the BBQ pit with the bone side down and begin cooking.

5. After 20 minutes, flip the ribs to let the meat side kiss the grill for a minute to develop lovely grill marks, then flip back to bone side down. Repeat this flipping every 20 minutes for even cooking, maintaining the bone side down primarily to protect the meat from drying out.

**For the Beer Enhanced Hickory Sauce:**

6. In a medium bowl, combine Kraft Hickory Flavored BBQ sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, garlic powder, garlic salt, cumin, and beer. Stir until all ingredients are well mixed.

7. After 1 hour of cooking the ribs, begin basting with the prepared sauce using a basting brush, flipping once more and adding extra sauce to both sides of the ribs. Continue to cook and baste every 10-15 minutes until the ribs reach an internal temperature of 195°F (usually around another hour, for a total of about 2 hours cook time).

8. Once cooked, remove the ribs from the grill and let them rest for about 10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

9. Slice between the bones to serve.
