Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C).
Prepare the ribs by removing the thin membrane from the back of the ribs for better tenderness. Pat the ribs dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper to create the dry rub.
Generously coat both sides of the ribs with the dry rub, ensuring an even distribution.
Place the ribs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil, meat side up, and cover them tightly with another layer of foil.
Bake the ribs in the preheated oven for 3 hours, or until they are tender and easily pull away from the bone.
While the ribs are baking, prepare the BBQ sauce. In a medium saucepan, combine the apple cider vinegar, ketchup, yellow mustard, honey, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, and vegetable oil.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently, and cook for 15-20 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Remove the baked ribs from the oven and carefully transfer them to a grill preheated to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C).
Brush the ribs generously with the BBQ sauce and grill for 5-7 minutes per side, basting often, until they develop a caramelized, sticky glaze.
Remove the ribs from the grill and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing into individual ribs.
Serve warm with additional BBQ sauce on the side and enjoy!
