Ingredients:
- 2 racks of pork ribs
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp paprika
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper

Directions:
- In a bowl, mix brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and salt to create the dry rub.
- Rub the mixture generously over the pork ribs, ensuring all sides are coated. Let the ribs marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight for maximum flavor.

- Remove the ribs from the grill, let them rest for a few minutes, then slice and serve hot.
