Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Beef back ribs
  • 0.25 cup Low-sodium soy sauce
  • 0.25 cup Apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Honey
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon Cumin
  • 1 spray Olive oil spray
  • 2 cups Water

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, mix together the soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, and honey until well combined to create a marinade.

Step 2

Add the garlic powder, onion powder, ground black pepper, paprika, and cumin to the marinade. Stir until all spices are fully integrated.

Step 3

Place the beef ribs into a large resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over the ribs. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.

Step 4

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 350°F/175°C).

Step 5

Remove the ribs from the marinade and let them rest at room temperature for about 20 minutes. While the ribs rest, strain the marinade into a small saucepan, add 2 cups of water, and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer until it thickens slightly, about 10 minutes.

Step 6

Spray the grill grates lightly with olive oil spray to prevent sticking.

Step 7

Place the ribs on the grill bone-side down, cover, and grill for 1.5 to 2 hours or until the meat is tender and pulls away from the bones easily. Turn the ribs occasionally and brush them with the reduced marinade every 30 minutes.

Step 8

Once cooked through, remove the ribs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 9

Serve the ribs hot with additional sauce on the side, if desired.
