Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine all the dry ingredients thoroughly. Ensure there are no clumps, and the spices are evenly distributed.

Prepare Ribs: Before applying the rub to the uncooked ribs, pat dry your ribs with a paper towel. This helps the rub adhere better to the meat.

Apply Rub: Liberally coat the tops of the rib rack, the back of the ribs, and the sides of the ribs. Make sure to press the rub into the meat to ensure it adheres well.

Rest: Let the ribs sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat. For best results it is a good idea to double wrap the ribs in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight and cook the next day. This is the best way to insure that your beef ribs take on all those wonderful flavors!

Grill or Smoke: Cook the slab of ribs according to your preferred method. Low and slow is the key for tender, flavorful ribs. Whether you're using a charcoal grill, smoking, or using a slow cooker, maintain a consistent temperature around 225-250°F (107-121°C). Cook until the ribs reach your desired level of tenderness, usually around 4-6 hours, or until the meat starts to fall off of the bone.

Finish: Optionally, during the last 30 minutes of cooking, you can glaze the ribs with your favorite barbecue sauce for added flavor and caramelization.

Rest and Serve: Once cooked, let the ribs rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy the mouthwatering, award-winning flavors!

Store your new rub in an airtight container at room temperature or in your spice cabinet.
