To make rub, combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Rub 2/3 of the mixture over all surfaces of ribs. Place ribs in a large pan or baking dish, cover and refrigerate at least 4 hour or overnight. Preheat grill for indirect cooking over medium heat. To make mop sauce, whisk together mustard, vinegar and salt in small bowl; set aside. Arrange ribs on grill. Close lid and cook for 1 hour. Baste with mop sauce. Cook 30 minutes longer, basting frequently. Remainder of rub can be sprinkled on at the end of cooking, if desired.
