Barbequed Pork Babyback Ribs

I prefer to use applewood for pork, but any fruitwood is good. This recipe will serve 4-6 people with a couple of side dishes. Barbeque is an easy technique worth learning.

What you need

  1. 2 racks pork babyback ribs - 2 to 2.5 lbs each
  2. 1 recipe Dry Rub or use your favorite seasonings
  3. 1 recipe BBQ Sauce of your choice

How to make it

  1. Rub ribs thoroughly with dry rub and allow to stand at room temperature while you start the coals and soak the wood you've chosen for smoke
  2. When coals are ready, place smoking wood on top. Place rack over and put rib racks directly onto grill rack.
  3. Cover and slow cook about 1 hour per pound of ribs.
  4. About 20 minutes before you will take the ribs off the smoker, preheat your oven to 250 degrees.
  5. Remove ribs and wrap in heavy duty foil
  6. Turn off your oven and place wrapped ribs inside for about 2 hours.
  7. Using a very sharp knife, cut between the bones to separate ribs.

You can shortcut by leaving ribs only 1 hour in the oven.
