Preheat the oven to 350 F.
Combine the dry rub ingredients in a small bowl.
Cover both front and back of the ribs with the dry rub, and rub into the meat.
Place the ribs in cake pan or baking dish. You may need to cut the rack of ribs in half to fit them in the dish.
Fill the bottom of the dishwith water, about 1/4 inch high, and cover with foil.
Place in the oven for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until the ribs have reached an internal temperature of 145 F.
Pull the ribs out of the oven and brush on a thick layer of BBQ sauce.
Time to head outside! Heatthe grill to around 400 F.
Place the ribs on the grill, bone side down. BBQ the ribs for about 10 minutes to help caramelize the sauce. Be careful to not let the heat get so high that the ribs are charred black. You may need to turn the grill down to low.
