Directions
Cut meat into two-rib sections and lay out on a large baking sheet lined with foil. Combine all dry rub ingredients. Sprinkle over ribs and rub into both sides of meat; set ribs aside.
In a mixing bowl, whisk ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, stout beer, mustard powder, and salt. Set to "sear" and add onions and oil. Sauté onions for 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for an additional 30 seconds, stirring often. Add BBQ sauce from bowl into the cooker and stir. Add a few ribs at a time, using tongs to gently coat them in sauce. Arrange ribs standing upright with meat-side facing outward.
- Cover with glass lid. Set for 3 hrs. When done remove ribs, place on a platter, and coat with sauce.
