Steps:

• Add the spices to a small bowl and mix well with your fingers.

LONESTAR STYLE RIBS

Steps:

• 1. Mix together the garlic salt, ground black pepper, onion powder, liquid smoke and cayenne pepper. Rub spice mixture over both sides of ribs. Wrap ribs in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. 2. One hour before grilling soak 4 cups wood chips in enough water to cover. Preheat gas grill to high. Drain wood chips. Place chips in metal smoker box, disposable drip pan or wrap in heavy-duty foil that has holes poked in the top for steam to escape. Place box, drip pan or foil packet directly over lava rocks. When chips begin to smoke, reduce heat to 275 degrees F. Place ribs, bone side down on grill rack. Turn off any burners directly below the ribs. Cover and grill over indirect heat for 1 1/2 - 2 hours or until meat is very tender. Add more wood chips as needed. 3. Transfer ribs to cutting board. Loosely cover with foil; let rest for 10 minutes before serving. * For charcoal grill: Drain wood chips. Prepare a medium fire in covered charcoal grill. Bank coals on both sides of grill. Place drip pan in center. Sprinkle 2 cups of the wood chips over the coals. When chips begin to smoke, place ribs, bone side down, in center of grill over drip pan. Cover and grill over indirect low heat for 2 hours or until meat is very tender, adding more wood chips every 20 minutes and, if necessary, a few briquettes to maintain an even grill temperature of about 275-300 degrees F.
