2 tablespoons salt
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cumin -- ground
2 tablespoons pepper
2 tablespoons chili powder
4 tablespoons paprika
2 medium pork racks full
1 recipe basting sauce
---basting sauce---
1 3/4 cups vinegar
2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon fresh ground pepper
 

Preparation:

Combine salt, sugar, cumin, pepper, chili and paprika to make Bbq rub. Rub thoroughly with mixture. Place ribs on baking sheets and cook in 180x oven 3 hours. Do not turn, slow cooking infuses spices. Remove from oven. (Ribs may be covered and refrigerated up to 2 day before grilling.) Use very low charcoal fire with rack set as high as possible. Grill ribs 5 to 30 min. per side depending on heat and temperature of ribs. Ribs should have light outer crust and be heated throughout. (longer cooking produces better ribs) If you prefer juicy ribs, coat with basting sauce just before removing from grill. Otherwise serve dry with sauce on the side. Remove from grill cut into serving size and serve. Basting sauce : mix all ingredients in a bowl. Recipe is easily halved or doubled. Keep 2:1 proportion of sauce to rub.
