INGREDIENTS
¼ Cup Canola Oil
½ Cup Favorite BBQ Sauce
Tangy Slaw:
½ Cup Mayonnaise
2 Tbsp. Whole Grain Mustard
4 Tbsp. Apple Cider Vinegar
½ Tbsp. Sugar

LET'S GET COOKING!
Peel the outer membrane on the bone-side of the ribs. Pat dry and rub oil all over the ribs. Mix Smoked Pecan Rub with salt and generously rub spice mix on ribs. Place on a sheet pan lined with aluminum foil and cover tightly with additional foil. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
Preheat oven 300°F degrees.
Bake ribs for 2 ½ hours or until tender. Uncover and brush the BBQ sauce on ribs; cook for another 30 minutes, until tender and edges are nicely browned.*
Prepare the slaw. In a large bowl whisk together the vinegar, sugar, mustard, mayonnaise, salt and celery seed. Add cabbage, red onion, and carrot. Toss the slaw, cover and refrigerate. Add green onions and cilantro before serving.
Remove ribs from oven into a cutting board. Cut between the bones and serve with BBQ sauce and coleslaw on the side.
*USDA recommends cooking pork to a minimum internal temperature of 145°F
