Smoked Baby Back Ribs

Deliciously smoked baby back ribs with a flavorful spice rub, creating tender and juicy ribs that are perfect for any barbecue or gathering.

Ingredients:

• 2 racks baby back ribs
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons paprika
• 1 tablespoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• Wood chips for smoking

Instructions:

To improve the flavor penetration, remove the membrane from the back of the ribs

To make the rub, combine the brown sugar, paprika, cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt, chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder in a bowl

Apply a generous layer of the rub to the ribs on both sides, making sure it gets into the meat

Set your smoker's temperature to 225F 107C and add some flavored wood chips that have been soaked

After positioning the ribs meat side up on the smoker grates, smoke them for three hours

Before sealing the aluminum foil, drizzle the ribs with a little apple juice or water

After two more hours, or until the ribs are tender, keep smoking

After giving the ribs a gentle shake, cover them with your preferred barbecue sauce and let them smoke for a further half an hour to solidify the sauce

Before slicing and serving, take the ribs out of the smoker and give them ten minutes to rest
