Preparing Your BBQ Pork Ribs
Before you start cooking, it’s essential to prepare your pork ribs. You’ll need:

1/4 cup of your favorite BBQ rub
1/4 cup of brown sugar
2 tablespoons of smoked paprika
1 tablespoon of garlic powder
1 tablespoon of salt
1 tablespoon of black pepper
1 cup of BBQ sauce (for serving)
Preheat your Appetite Automatic Pap Maker by selecting the "Braai" mode and setting the temperature to 160°C. While the cooker is heating up, mix the BBQ rub, brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Remove the membrane from the back of the pork ribs and apply the dry rub mixture evenly, making sure to coat all surfaces.
