Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 pounds beef short ribs, bone-in, trimmed of fat
- 8 ice cubes
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce, plus more, to taste, for serving
Directions
Step 1 -In a medium mixing bowl, combine the sugar, the paprika, the chili powder, the salt, and the garlic powder.
Step 2 -Place the short ribs on a baking dish and rub all sides generously with the spice mixture.
Step 3 -Cover the ribs and refrigerate for 30 minutes-1 hour.
Step 4 -Preheat the grill to medium indirect heat.
Step 5 -Place a 1/4 of the ribs and two of the ice cubes in the center of a heavy-duty aluminum foil sheet.
Step 6 -Double-fold the foil ends to seal the packet, leaving enough room for heat to circulate on the inside.
Step 7 -Repeat the process until you have 4 total packets.
Step 8 -Place the packets on the grill rack over medium indirect heat.
Step 9 -Cover and grill until the ribs are perfectly tender, and reach 200-205 degrees F when checked with a thermometer, about 1 1/2-2 hours.
Step 10 -Make a slit across the top of the packets with a knife, being careful as there will be a lot of steam. Once the steam has escaped, open the foil packets and remove the meat.
Step 11 -Brush the ribs with the 1/2 cup of the barbecue sauce and grill over direct medium heat until browned, about 5 minutes.
Step 12 -Serve hot with the extra barbecue sauce.
