Preparation

1. 1.
   Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
2. 2.
   In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, paprika, cumin, thyme, salt, black pepper, and olive oil to make a marinade.
3. 3.
   Rub the marinade all over the pork ribs, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let them marinate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for maximum flavor.
4. 4.
   In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, and whole grain mustard to make the glaze.
5. 5.
   Place the marinated ribs on the preheated grill and cook for about 20-25 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
6. 6.
   Brush the honey mustard glaze onto the ribs during the last 5 minutes of grilling, turning them occasionally to create a caramelized coating.
7. 7.
   Remove the ribs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Treat your ingredients with care...

• Pork ribs — For the best results, choose meaty ribs with a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that the ribs are tender and juicy after grilling.
• Honey — Use a high-quality honey for a more pronounced and natural sweetness in the glaze.
• Mustard — Opt for both Dijon and whole grain mustard to add depth and texture to the glaze.

Tips & Tricks

• For extra tenderness, you can wrap the marinated ribs in foil and bake them in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 2 hours before grilling.
• If you prefer a spicier glaze, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili flakes to the honey mustard mixture.
• Serve the ribs with a side of coleslaw or grilled vegetables to balance the richness of the dish.
• To achieve a smokier flavor, you can use wood chips or chunks on the grill while cooking the ribs.
• Leftover ribs can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or on the grill.
