Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

2. In a medium bowl, combine the Kona Coffee Blend, brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to create the dry rub.

3. Pat the pork ribs dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This will help the rub adhere better.

4. Generously coat the ribs with the dry rub, making sure to cover both sides. Use your hands to massage the rub into the meat for maximum flavor.

5. Place the seasoned ribs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil, bone side down. Cover the ribs tightly with another piece of foil to keep moisture in.

6. Bake the ribs in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and starts to pull away from the bones. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick; it should slide in easily.

7. Once cooked, preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C).

8. Remove the ribs from the oven and discard the top layer of foil. Brush the ribs generously with your favorite BBQ sauce.

9. Grill the ribs for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally and brushing with more BBQ sauce, until caramelized and slightly charred.

10. Remove from the grill and let the ribs rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with extra BBQ sauce on the side.
