Peach Honey BBQ Ribs are tender, juicy and packed with flavor. They are easy to make so fire up the grill and get ready for some fall off the bone ribs.

Summer is in full swing! We have been firing up our grill on a regular basis. Ribs are still by far one of my favorite things to grill and with Smithfield Fresh Pork, they always turn out perfect!

We grill almost every weekend during the summer. I try to keep the oven time to a minimum when it is hot outside so grilling is the perfect alternative.

Peach Honey BBQ Ribs On Grill

The method I used to grill these peach honey bbq ribs is very similar. It’s all about cooking with indirect heat.

Place charcoal on one side of the grill and a drip pan filled with water on the other side.

Light the charcoal and heat up the grill to 250 degrees F. You will want to try and maintain a low temperature between 225-250 degrees during the cooking process.

I used  Smithfield Extra Tender St. Louis Ribs for this recipe. St. Louis Ribs have a little more fat content that adds amazing flavor. Baby back ribs would also be delicious with this recipe. Smithfield fresh pork ribs are hand-trimmed, extra-tender and juicy. And with no added hormones or steroids, I feel good about serving them to my family.

Once you remove the membrane from the ribs, season both sides with the rub. Place the ribs meat side up on the side without the charcoal. Cover the grill and cook for 2 hours and 15 minutes.

Next remove the ribs from the grill, wrap them tightly in aluminum foil and place back on the grill for another hour.

Then slather ribs with peach honey bbq sauce and put back on the grill to finish cooking.
