Steps

1

Remove membrane from back of ribs and sprinkle dry rub generously on both sides. Wrap in plastic and let sit overnight in refrigerator.
2

Start smoker and bring to 275° using wood of your choice. I like pecan and apple.
3

Place ribs in smoker meat side up and cook for 2.5 hours.
4

Get a long sheet of aluminum foil and fold sides up to make a tray. Add a splash of apple juice, a little of the dry rub, and 2 or 3 tbsp of butter.
5

Place ribs in foil meat side down and double wrap in foil.
6

Return to smoker and cook for 1 hour.
7

Remove from foil, brush on BBQ sauce of your choice, and return to smoker to cook for additional 45 minutes to 1 hour.
8

Remove from smoker, let rest for at least 30 minutes, slice and enjoy.

I'm a happily married father of 3 who loves to cook...especially outside. My favorite style of cooking is low and slow in the smoker, but I also enjoy getting the kids in the kitchen and seeing what we can come up with.
