Step-by-Step Instructions

In a large bowl, combine honey, minced garlic, BBQ sauce, soy sauce, paprika, cayenne pepper, and black pepper. Coat the pork ribs thoroughly and marinate for 4 hours or overnight.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (400°F). Clean and oil the grates.
Remove the ribs from the marinade and grill bone-side down for 4-5 minutes until grill marks appear, basting occasionally.
Continue grilling for 25-30 minutes, basting every 5 minutes until cooked through with an internal temperature of 190°F.
