One advantage boiling has over straight grilling is cooking time. With a 45-minute to one-hour boil first, the spareribs will tenderize in the boil and need only go onto the grill to sear and caramelize on their exterior-- a process that only takes about 10 to 15 minutes, per side, over a medium-hot grill.
Place the ribs on the grill. Grilled ribs need to be cooked low and slow. If using a gas grill, place the ribs on the grill, turn the heat down to low, and cook them covered for 30 minutes without looking at them. Then turn them over, and continue to cook for another 90 minutes, turning them every 30 minutes.
