Hickory Brown Sugar Barbecue Sauce
Add all of the ingredients needed for the sauce into a large pot.
Mix until everything is well combined.
Bring the sauce to a boil, and let it cook for about 5 minutes.
Reduce the heat (from high to low-medium) and let the sauce simmer for about 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Ribs
Remove the membranes and excess fat from the ribs.
Combine 1/4 of my homemade barbecue rub, 2 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil, and 3 tbsp of apple cider vinegar. Combine until it turns into a paste.
Rub the "paste" all over the ribs (front, back, sides).
Preheat the grill to 325° F, then place the ribs on the grill.
Flip the ribs every 15 minutes.
About 45 minutes into grilling, start brushing on the sauce.
Continue to flip the ribs and brush on the sauce every 15 minutes, until the ribs are fully cooked (it took my ribs about 1 hour and 10-15 minutes).
