  3. Grill packets on a grill rack over medium (375 degrees F to 400 degrees F) indirect heat in covered grill 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until tender.

  4. Open packets carefully by cutting along top folds with a sharp knife, allowing steam to escape., then open top of foil packet. Brush ribs with 1/2 cup barbecue sauce. Continue grilling over direct medium heat, covered, 5 minutes more until browned and crisp, turning once.

  5. Serve with additional barbecue sauce as desired.
