While searching for something else I came across this from the Gates BBQ site.  It tells how to make BBQ Ribs.  I bet you thought they smoked them didn't you...

Check out their recipe section yourself if you can't believe it.

How to Cook Ribs
Place your pork ribs, preferably 2-3lbs, on the counter or block.
Trim all fat and score between each bone.
Marinate, medium strength, using Gates original Seasoning, shaking off excess.
Let stand until it starts to liquify, approximately 15 minutes.
Place ribs front or face side down on a HOT FIRE.
Bar-BQ until golden brown, then turn over.
Bar-BQ backside until golden brown.
Move away from the fire slightly. Continue Bar-BQ process for 45 minutes to an hour, or until tender.
There, the perfect ribs!

I went to gates last time i was in KC.... not impressed. We went to the one on Main st. I have always gotten the "Beef on Bun" LOL,  (if ya been there ya know what i'm sayin), but this time i got the "Pork on Bun" and i didn't like it at all. I was expecting pulled or chopped pork, but it was cured and tasted like ham with BBQ sauce on it, I didn't care for that. I love the experience but i have not been impressed when I go there. Ya just can't get it as good as you can make it yerself!
