How to Make Baby Back Ribs Reynold's Wrap

  1. Preheat grill to medium heat (or preheat oven to 320°F).
  2. Lay out two large sheets of heavy-duty Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil.
  3. Place half of the ribs (approximately 2-3 lbs) in a single layer on each sheet of foil.
  4. In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons paprika, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, 1 tablespoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Rub the spice mixture evenly over both racks of ribs.
  5. Bring up the foil sides and fold over the ribs, creating a sealed packet. Double fold the top and one end to secure.
  6. Pour 1/4 cup of water into each foil packet.
  7. Double fold the remaining end, leaving some space for heat circulation.
  8. Repeat steps 3-7 to make two foil packets.
  9. **Grill Method:** Grill the foil packets for 45-60 minutes, covered, turning halfway through.
  10. **Grill Method:** Carefully remove ribs from foil. Place ribs on the grill grates, brushing liberally with your favorite barbecue sauce.
  11. **Grill Method:** Continue grilling for 10-15 minutes, basting with sauce and turning every 5 minutes until sticky and caramelized.
  12. **Oven Method:** Place foil packets on a baking sheet and bake for 2 hours.
  13. **Oven Method:** Carefully open the foil packets, letting some steam escape. Brush ribs with sauce.
  14. **Oven Method:** Return to the oven for 15 minutes, or until the sauce is caramelized and ribs are tender.
