Grilled Baby Back Ribs

I usually oven bake my baby back ribs, but John wanted to try cooking them on the grill. So, I went online, to see how other folks grill their ribs…you know, what temperature, method, etc. Based on my findings, I came up with this method, using some of the steps that I use in my oven baked ribs. I must say, they were delicious, not to mention, cooked to perfection. I do start preparing the ribs the day before cooking, as you will see in the directions.
