Description

1. In a medium bowl, combine the wine, soy sauce, vegetable oil, barbecue sauce, if using, thyme, salt, pepper, and garlic. Mix well.
2. Place the ribs in a shallow, non-metal baking dish and pour the marinade over them. Make sure the ribs are evenly coated.
3. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 to 6 hours.
4. Bring the ribs to room temperature before grilling.
5. Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for indirect heat. Adjust the heat on the active burner to 250 F. When the grill is hot, remove the ribs from marinade and place on the cool side of the grill to cook indirectly. Discard the marinade. Close the lid and cook until the ribs are tender, turning every 15 minutes, about 3 hours depending on meatiness of the ribs.
