    Heat coals or gas grill for indirect heat. If using charcoal grill, place drip pan directly under grilling area, and arrange coals around edge of firebox. Place ribs over drip pan or over unheated side of gas grill. Cover and grill over medium heat 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours, turning occasionally, until tender.

Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Substitution: Pork loin back ribs are the leanest and most tender ribs, but you also could use pork spareribs. Plan on cooking them for the same amount of time.
  • Tip 2
    Special Touch: Arrange these robust ribs on a platter surrounded with sprigs of fresh cilantro and halved orange slices.
  • Tip 3
    Did You Know?: When food is cooked away from the heat source, it's called "indirect-heat" grilling. This is the best way to cook large and long-cooking foods, such as these ribs, because the indirect heat won't overcook the food. Because there's no fire under the food, there's also less chance of burning during the longer cooking time.
