Directions
For the brine: Heat the tea in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the sugar, salt, peppercorns, garlic and bay leaves. Heat through, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves in the tea. Pour the brine into a large bowl. Cool and refrigerate for 4 hours.
Cut the racks in half and add to the brine. Place in the fridge for 18 to 24 hours.
For the spice rub: Stir together the smoked paprika, chili powder, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper and cumin in a bowl.
Remove the ribs from the brine and pat dry. Place bone side on a cutting board and rub with the spice rub. Turn the ribs over and rub the other side with the spice rub.
Prep a grill for indirect grilling at 250 to 300 degrees F by placing coals on only one side of the grill.
Cook the ribs over indirect heat for about 2 hours, turning often and checking the flame for any small flareups. Feel free to lightly brush the ribs with your favorite sauce about 15 minutes prior to removing them from grill.
