Time 5h40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ cup kosher salt
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
3 tablespoons white sugar
3 tablespoons black pepper
2 tablespoons chili powder
4 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
2 racks Smithfield® Extra Tender Pork Spareribs, membrane removed
½ cup apple cider vinegar
½ cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
2 tablespoons hot sauce
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • About one hour before smoking, make the dry rub. Combine salt, sugars, black pepper, chili powder, garlic powder and cayenne in small bowl; mix well. Generously coat both sides of ribs with rub. Set aside at room temperature for 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce. Whisk together all ingredients in bowl.
  • Heat charcoal or gas grill for indirect cooking at 250 degrees F.
  • Place the ribs, meaty side up, over a drip pan and cook for 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 hours until very tender, basting with barbecue sauce every hour. Add about 12 coals to a charcoal grill every 45 minutes or so to maintain the heat.
  • Serve ribs with remaining barbecue sauce.

The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was perfect. I will definitely be making these again and again.
