Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper to create a dry rub for the ribs.

  2. Pat the country-style pork ribs dry with paper towels and then generously coat them with the dry rub mixture, making sure to cover all sides of the ribs. Let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.

  3. While the ribs are resting, prepare your smoker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Fill the water pan with apple cider vinegar to keep the ribs moist during the smoking process. Preheat the smoker to 225°F (107°C).

  4. Once the smoker is ready, add the wood chips to the smoker box or foil pouch. Applewood or hickory chips complement the pork flavor beautifully.

  5. Place the seasoned pork ribs on the smoker rack and close the lid. Let the ribs smoke for approximately 3-4 hours, maintaining a consistent temperature throughout the cooking process.

  6. After the initial smoking period, baste the ribs with your favorite BBQ sauce to add a sticky, sweet glaze. Continue smoking the ribs for an additional 1-2 hours, or until they reach an internal temperature of 190°F (88°C) and are tender.

  7. Carefully remove the ribs from the smoker and let them rest for about 10 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute within the meat, ensuring maximum flavor and tenderness.

  8. Slice the ribs between the bones and serve them hot with extra BBQ sauce on the side. Pair them with your favorite sides like coleslaw, cornbread, or baked beans for a complete meal that will have everyone coming back for seconds!
