How to Make Best Ever Bbq Ribs

  1. Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C).
  2. Pat the ribs dry with paper towels. Apply a thin layer of your favorite dry rub to both sides of the ribs.
  3. Place the ribs on the smoker, meat-side up. Cook for 3-4 hours, or until the meat is tender.
  4. While the ribs are smoking, prepare your BBQ sauce. Combine all sauce ingredients in a saucepan and simmer over medium heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Remove ribs from the smoker. Apply a generous layer of BBQ sauce to both sides.
  6. Wrap the ribs tightly in aluminum foil and return them to the smoker for another 1-2 hours, or until the meat is very tender and easily pulls away from the bone.
  7. Remove the ribs from the foil and apply another layer of BBQ sauce.
  8. Return the ribs to the smoker uncovered for the last 30 minutes to allow the sauce to caramelize and create a beautiful bark.
  9. Remove the ribs from the smoker and let them rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
