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 soak in.
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 is reaching temp 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 done 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 for them to be shaken into coat them fully.
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 even more amazing flavor!
