Directions

  1. Mix all dry rub ingredients and heavily coat every part of the ribs, making sure to cover all surfaces. Refrigerate ribs from one hour, up to overnight.​

  2. Preheat your grill to medium heat according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Brush and oil the cleaned grill grates. ​​

  3. Place the ribs on the preheated grill and cook for about 10–15 minutes per side, until meat reaches an internal temperature of 145–190 degrees F. Remove from heat and allow a 3-minute rest. Then, slice the meat from the ribs and discard the bones. ​​

  4. While the meat rests, warm tortillas on the grill for 30 seconds per side.
    *Tortilla tip: brush both sides of tortillas with oil before grilling over medium heat for 30 seconds on each side​.

  5. Spread a spoonful of guacamole onto each tortilla. Serve with sliced pork ribs and any desired toppings. Serve hot with lime wedges in the side.​​
