Delight in the rich, smoky flavor of perfectly smoked ribs, with the choice to wrap for tenderness or embrace a firmer bark. A mouthwatering blend of spices and a sweet-tangy basting sauce make these ribs a barbecue masterpiece.

Ingredients:

• 2 racks of baby back ribs
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons paprika
• 2 tablespoons black pepper
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 cup BBQ sauce

Gather brown sugar, paprika, black pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper in a bowl

Make sure the coating is even by rubbing the mixture all over both sides of the ribs

Use your favorite hardwood chips to heat your smoker up to 225F 107C for extra flavor

Place the ribs directly on the grates of the smoker and smoke them for three hours, making sure the temperature stays the same

No need to: After 2 hours, you can choose to wrap the ribs in foil for a more tender finish or leave them alone for a firmer bark

Every 20 minutes during the last hour of smoking, baste the ribs with the sauce to make sure they get a glossy glaze

There is no need to wait for the ribs to reach 190F 88C before cooking them
