Baby Back Ribs


Some classic and delicious baby back ribs. Keep in mind that if you do not have
a smoker, a grill with some tin-foil wrapped smoking wood with poked holes will
suffice.


Ingredients


Applewood (or other sweet cooking wood such as cherry or maple)
2 baby back rib racks
1 container of barbecue rub (Traeger Pork and Poultry Rub is recommended)
Tin foil
Bag of brown sugar
Bottle of honey
is recommended)
(Optional) A stick of butter


Directions


1. Preheat your smoker to 180 degrees Fahrenheit using applewood.
2. Take the membrane off of the back of the ribs if your butcher hasn’t already
done so (tutorial)
3. Cover both sides of the ribs heavily in your barbecue rub, and let sit at
room temp for 30 minutes.
4. Place the ribs bone down (meat up) on your smoker, and let smoke at 180
degrees Fahrenheit for 3 hours.
5. Take the meat out and place on top of two sheets of tin foil. Then, apply a
generous amount of brown sugar and honey to both sides of the ribs, followed
by a small amount of the barbecue rub. If you have butter, cut it into slices
and add it on the meat side (butter is optional).
6. Wrap your ribs in the tin foil and place them back on the smoker at 225
degrees Fahrenheit for 2 hours.
7. Take your ribs out of the foil and place them bone down (meat up) on your
smoker.
8. Apply a generous helping of your barbecue sauce to the ribs once every 30
minutes for an hour (twice).
