Directions
Hickory Smoked/Bbq Baby Back Ribs, The ultimate smoked baby back ribs at home. Just as good as any smoke house that you’ll go to. An amazing recipe that was adapted from a cooks illustrated article., Ok I must admit I like the flavor but as constructive critisim I think we both could work on getting the brine flavor a little deeper in the ribs… Maybe a little more time? I brine and smoke a turkey for Thanksgiving and I brine it for almost 40 hours, I think that maybe a bit much for ribs but additional time I think would help. The flavor was great and moist but closer to the bone the flavors were light. Thanks for the start… I will modify and continue using it., I had never heard of Brining ribs before so I had to try this one. The ribs came out just perfectly! Rich wonderful flavor. used my Weber Smokey Mountain Cooker for these…about 260 degrees for 4 hours turning only once in the process so as to keep the temperature constant. Used dry Hickory Chunks over Briquetts. I made a Bar-B-Que sauce but no one used it! The meat was too good to drown out with sauce.
