Step 2

Mix together 2 tbsp. salt, sugar, paprika, black pepper, oregano, garlic, onion, thyme, marjoram, parsley cumin, mustard, celery, cayenne, fennel, and white pepper in a bowl. Rub pork all over with all but 2 tbsp. of the spice mixture. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour or chill overnight. Whisk together remaining salt and spice mixture with apple juice and ¾ cup water in a bowl; set basting sauce aside. Prepare your grill using the kettle grill, bullet smoker, or gas grill method, using apple wood chunks or chips (see Fuel and Flavor). Place ribs, top side down, on grate. Maintaining a temperature of 225° to 275° (if using a kettle grill or bullet smoker, replenish fire with unlit coals, as needed, to maintain temperature; see instructions), cook, turning once and basting with sauce every 20 minutes, until the tip of a small knife slips easily in and out of the meat, 2 to 4 hours.
