A gas grill isn't going to give you what you want imo.

Maybe invest in a Weber Kettle. Needs to be cooked direct over charcoal. And I would suggest giving St. Louis ribs another try.

Here is an article that gives some background and directions. Not sure Rendezvous uses rub in the mop sauce but sounds good to me.

Ideally, you need more distance between the grate and the charcoal than a kettle will give you but it's probably your best option. Maybe make a two zone bed of coals in the kettle and move them back and forth some between cooler and hotter. Takes some tending.

Edit: if you want the charcoal flavor profile without all the tending and flipping, you might consider a Pit Barrel Cooker. You can do more than ribs and you could cook more than a kettle grate would allow.
