Smoked BBQ ribs….. Doesn’t that sound like every man’s dream food? I have to say I am blessed that my old lady loves to find meat on markdown, and when she found packages of ribs 50% off, she grabbed them all! We had friends coming over for dinner, so we whipped up these ribs, and they were a hit with everyone; even the kids were into them! (I have included affiliate links to products I love.

You may remember from my Coca-Cola Smoked BBQ Wings that I like to make a brine; well, this one for ribs added a lot of great flavor. I do have to say if you don’t have a smoker at your house, you are really missing out!! We use ours to do everything to smoke cheese, vegetables, meat, almost anything you can think of!! Now my personal favorite smoking flavor is apple, the fruit smoke just adds an amazing flavor.

How To Make Brine For Ribs:
In a large container, mix together all the brine ingredients except the ice, and give it a good stir with a whisk or a big spoon
Place your ribs into the brine and add ice.
Seal up your container and set it in the fridge. Allow your brine to refrigerate for over 24 hours to let the season to soak in.
How TO Make Smoked BBQ Ribs:
Prep your smoker; I always start by turning it on and placing the apple pucks in it to get a good smoke rolling from your smoker.
I add my water tray after I get a cloud of smoke going from my pucks and then open up my smoke pipe.
While your smoker reaches temperature, remove the racks and spray with a nonstick. Using tongs remove your ribs from your brine. I let mine sit on the racks for about 10 minutes to let excess fluid drip off.
Once your smoker is at about 200-250 degrees, place your ribs in the smoker!
Smoke for about 3-4 hours until they reach done temperature.
Before the ribs are full, prepare a container with the sauce ingredients, bbq sauce, ketchup, honey, Worcestershire sauce, and apple cider vinegar.
Mix up the sauce ingredients, and then throw in your cooked ribs.
My container was large enough to be shaken to fully coat them.
Remove your smoked ribs from the smoker and place them in your container with bbq sauce. I used a container that I could shake them up in to give them a good coating.
Once your ribs are sauced, fire up your barbecue on low.
We cooked ours on the grill for about 10 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken up and have an even more amazing flavor!
Is there anything better than this sight on your grill?? What is your go-to way to cook ribs?
