Smoked BBQ Ribs

No reviews yet

This recipe uses the 2-2-1 method for baby back ribs. The first 2 hours provide the smoke flavor, the next 2 hours in foil make them tender, and the last 1 hour directly on the grill forms a nice crust. You'll love the result!

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Set up your ceramic grill or smoker for indirect cooking (i.e. use a heat defector or remote firebox). Use lump charcoal and preheat the grill for a 250 degree F burn.

  2. Meanwhile, remove the membrane from the bottom of the ribs (peel it back at a bone and grip with a paper towel to pull off) and pat them dry with paper towels. Mix the honey and mustard and brush all over the ribs.

  3. Whisk the dry spices together in a bowl to form a rub and then coat the ribs all over with it. You don't want to over season them...whatever easily sticks on after shaking them a bit is enough. For easy cleanup, I like to cover a half baking sheet with foil to make a tray for this step.
