Start it at one end and then grab it with paper towel and peel it off in one piece. Discard the membrane. Cut each slab in half. Place the ribs on a sided baking sheet.In a bowl, combine all the rub ingredients. Taste the rub and adjust seasonings as needed. It should have a sweet, salty and slightly spicy taste. Sprinkle some of the rub on the back sides of the ribs, rubbing it in. Flip the ribs over and generously sprinkle the meaty side with the remaining rub. Pat the rub into the ribs. Place the ribs in the refrigerator for at least one hour or as long as overnight, before grilling.In a spray bottle, place the pineapple juice, vinegar and Worcestershire sauce.Remove the ribs from the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before grilling.Preheat the grill with all burners on high. Oil the grill grates. Reduce the heat to medium-low and place the ribs on the grill. You want to maintain a temperature of about 300 degrees. You may have to shut one burner off.After about 25 minutes, spray the ribs with the pineapple mixture. This helps keep the outside moist during cooking and gives the ribs a little flavor. Continue grilling the ribs, spraying with the pineapple mixture every 25 minutes, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours longer. The ribs should be nicely browned and the meat should have shrunk some from the ends of the bones and be tender.Give the meaty side of the ribs a light brushing of barbecue sauce. Turn meaty side down and grill about 5 to 8 minutes just so the sauce caramelizes a bit. You can lightly sauce the back (nonmeaty side) if desired.Remove the ribs from the grill and let stand about 5 minutes before cutting into individual ribs. Serve with additional sauce on the side.From and tested by Susan M. Selasky for the Free Press Test Kitchen.
