Special Precautions and Tips:
- Use a good quality barbecue sauce. The flavor of the sauce will make or break the ribs.
- Don't overcook the ribs. They should be tender but not falling apart.
- Let the ribs rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
