Ribs are difficult, but when done right they are incredible!
Prep Time:
15-20 minutes
COOK TIME
7 hours
Ingredients
Rack of St. Louis style pork ribs
Camp mix
Course black pepper
Butter
Stone Wall Kitchen Chipotle Maple Glaze (can be substituted for a sauce of your preference)
Spritzing liquid
Directions
Preheat smoker to 200 degrees with pellets of choice
Remove ribs from packaging, pat dry.
Using a sharp knife, trim ribs to remove excess fat and trimmings and flap meat to shape ribs so they are uniform
Using the back side of the metal spoon, peel the back of the silver skin on the ribs and use a paper towel to remove all the silver skin from the backside. You can leave this on if you want and just scour the back so the ribs release easily after cooked
Sprinkle the seasoning on the ribs on both sides
Place ribs on the smoker at 200 degrees for 3 hours. After 3 hours, increase temp to 250 degrees and spritz the ribs each hour until it reaches 160/170 degrees. Place ribs in the foil wrap with a few pads of butter. Wrap tightly and continue cooking until 195 degrees.
Open foil and mop tops of ribs with a sauce of choice. Close the smoker and continue cooking for 20 minutes.
Remove from smoker, and rest until internal temp reaches 170 degrees. Serve and enjoy!
My thoughts on this recipe.....
I have done ribs several times. It is sometimes hit-and-miss. This one was the best I have ever done. Doing ribs right will be trial and error, but when it is good, it is right up there with some of the best BBQ you will have!
