Put the slabs meat side up over indirect heat, away from the coals, close the lid, and cook until the ribs are tender, about 4 hours. Baste the ribs with the Maple Coffee Glaze the last 10 minutes of cook time.
Transfer the ribs to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice the ribs between the bones and serve.
