Pork Ribs with Body Buzz Rub

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Prepare your smoker at 250 degrees. We recommend hickory wood for this smoke.

  2. Flip the ribs meat side down and remove the membrane off the back of the rack. This is very easily accomplished by grabbing the membrane with a paper towel and pulling it off. Removing the membrane will allow your rub to penetrate into the meat more effectively.

  3. Apply one heavy coat of our Body Buzz Rub. Allow the rub to "soak in" for 15 mins.

  4. Flip them over and repeat the exact same process for the other side. If you don't have that much time you can slather the ribs in our Slap Sauce first to act as a binder and apply the rub much quicker. 

  5. Place the ribs meat side up in the smoker. Spritz the ribs with apple juice every 45 minutes. Smoke for 3 hours or until you get to a beautiful mahogany color. Baby back ribs will take less time. 

  6. Wrap the ribs in aluminum foil to protect that perfect color. Lay out 2 long pieces of aluminum foil. Create a bed of butter, brown sugar and honey on the foil. I recommend one handful of brown sugar, 2 good beads of butter and one nice bead of honey. Lay the ribs meat side down on the sweet concoction with the meat side downbones up. 

  7. Return the ribs to the smoker and continue to cook for another 2 hours or so. 

  8. When the meat has pulled back and exposed the bone about 1/4" inch the ribs are done. 

  9. Remove the ribs from the foil and sauce or glaze them at this point.

  10. It is only necessary to leave the ribs on the cooker for 10 - 15 minutes to set the sauce. Enjoy!
