1/4 cup coarse salt
2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons dried, chopped onion flakes
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon garlic salt

Mix all Dry Rub ingredients. Rub into ribs as little as 10 minutes before, or at most 60 minutes before grilling.

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat. Lightly oil the grill.

Grill for 15-20 minutes turning frequentlysor to desired doneness.

Pick a Peck of BBQ Pineapple

1 fresh pineapple (could substitute with canned rings)
1/2 cup orange juice (or apple juice)
1/4 cup brown sugar

Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill. Place pineapple slices on lightly oiled grill and cook for 5-7 minutes per side-cooking until outside is dry and slightly char marked from grill.

Serve warm with reserve marinade over vanilla ice cream.
