I used to really only like my ribs sauced... than I realized how wonderful they can be when they are naked. Naked ribs can be dipped in any sauce imaginable, so of course, I was an instant convert. These ribs were really for Chris... he adores his ribs with just a dry rub and some of his favorite bbq sauces are mustard based... so needless to say, these were a big hit!

Ingredients:
1 slab pork ribs
For the dry rub -
2 teaspoons Country Bob's seasoning salt
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon cumin
For the bbq sauce -
1/4 cup yellow mustard
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1/8 teaspoon celery seed
Directions:
In a small bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the dry rub until well combined. If you need to, trim the ribs of any back silver lining or excess fat. Rinse and pat dry. Sprinkle and rub in the dry rub on both sides of the ribs. Wrap in plastic wrap and place in refrigerator for 2 hours.
Meanwhile, in a small sauce pan over medium heat, add all the ingredients for the bbq sauce. Stir to combine. Bring just to a boil and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
Preheat grill to 300 degrees F. Remove ribs from plastic and wrap loosely in aluminum foil. Place ribs in foil over indirect heat and grill for 1 hour, rotating packet at least once. Remove packet from grill and carefully remove the ribs. Crank the heat up on the grill to 325 and place the ribs over direct heat. Grill for 8-10 minutes per side. Remove and allow to cool before cutting. Serve with bbq sauce and enjoy!!

I have been a fan of Memphis dry ribs ever since my first visit there in the early 80's. The addition of the bbq sauce here sounds like a great idea.
Look at this!!!!! We just had mustard bbq sauce for the first time our lives last night. From a restaurant, and of course I was planning to google it to make it at home and voila, here it is. We really liked it and both of us were surprised that we had never seen it offered anywhere. Must not be a "Denver Thing". Thanks so much for this recipe.
I have enjoyed mustard based Q sauce on pork and chicken but for some reason, I have never tried it on ribs. I wouldn't likely use it as a glaze but as a dipping sauce the way you used it, great idea.
Looks like some tasty ribs Jenn. Like Chris, I've never tried mustard on ribs.
