BBQ SMOKER PORK RIBS RECIPE BY TASTY



BBQ Smoker Pork Ribs Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: pork rib, BBQ sauce, ground ginger, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, paprika, minced garlic, onion powder, ground black pepper, mustard powder

Provided by Mike Price

Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 rack pork rib, St. Louis-style or baby back
2 cups BBQ sauce, optional
1 tablespoon ground ginger
½ tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons onion powder
1 ½ tablespoons ground black pepper
1 ½ tablespoons mustard powder

Steps:

  • Using a charcoal chimney or lighter fluid, light 6-8 pieces of lump charcoal and let them come to a full burn. Add to your firebox and preheat the smoker to roughly 225°F (105°C), adding charcoal to the fire as necessary.
  • Add the ginger, cayenne, garlic powder, paprika, minced garlic, onion powder, black pepper, and mustard powder in a medium bowl and mix thoroughly.
  • Place ribs on a large sheet of aluminum foil and coat liberally with spice rub on all sides.
  • Place a metal pan filled with water at the end of the smoker's cooking chamber closest to the firebox. Place ribs directly on the grate of your cooking chamber and close the smoker. Open the vents at both ends of the smoker.
  • Add a chunk or two of smoking wood to the firebox each half hour to create a stream of thin but visible smoke that is somewhat blue in appearance. Too much wood may result in thick, gray smoke. If this happens, open the smoker and clear the smoke out, waiting to close it until you're able to achieve manageable smoke again.
  • Maintain the heat by adding additional charcoal as necessary.
  • Smoke ribs for 3-5 hours, spraying each hour with water to keep the surface from drying out.
  • Cook time will vary based on the size and type of rib (baby backs will cook faster than spareribs). Use a meat thermometer to gauge doneness.
  • At 170°F (75°C), remove the ribs from the smoker and place onto a large sheet of aluminum foil. If using barbecue sauce, apply now with a basting brush. Wrap the aluminum foil up to enclose the ribs, and place them back in your smoker for an additional 30 minutes.
  • Let meat rest at least 15 minutes off the heat before slicing. Serve with remaining barbecue sauce and preferred sides.
  • Enjoy!

Time 5h55m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons yellow mustard
One 4-pound rack pork spare ribs

SMOKR'S SLOW SMOKED PORK SPARE RIBS



Smokr's Slow Smoked Pork Spare Ribs image

These are the perfect treat for a hot, summer day. Fire up the grill and get ready for some of the best ribs you've ever had!

Provided by Raphe Reeves

Categories     Ribs

Time 10h

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 c brown sugar
1/4 c paprika
1 Tbsp black pepper, fine
1 Tbsp kosher salt
1 Tbsp chili powder
3/4 Tbsp garlic powder
3/4 Tbsp onion powder
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • 1. I start out with the ribs (2 full racks) on a cookie sheet, or the like, and keep them wet with Apple Cider Vinegar for about 4 or 5 hours. I use an inexpensive spray bottle and just keep spraying them intermittently during this time.
  • 2. During the time you're keeping them wet with the vinegar, go ahead and mix the rub ingredients in a mixing bowl.
  • 3. Afterwards, I'll lightly coat both sides of the ribs with pulp free orange juice.
  • 4. Next, I apply basic Yellow Mustard, lightly, to both sides of the slab/s.
  • 5. Lastly, I apply the "rib rub" (see ingredients) evenly to both sides of the slab, the extra on the meat side.
  • 6. Now, it's time to wrap them in aluminum foil and refrigerate overnight. I keep them in the fridge for 12 - 18 hours.
  • 7. Cooking day: Take the ribs out of the fridge at least two full hours before you plan to put them on the cooker/smoker. They need to be at room temperature before placing in/on the cooker/smoker. I like to smoke the ribs at a temp no higher than 220 degrees F. "Low & Slow"
  • 8. I'll cook the ribs for about 90 mins, not turning nor opening the cooker. You can spray the ribs with the Apple Cider Vinegar while they cook, if you wish, to help keep them moist.
  • 9. Then, I'll take them out and wrap them in aluminum foil for the next 90 mins.
  • 10. At the 3 hour mark, I'll remove the foil and cook the remaining time. Based on your temp, it'll take another 3 - 4 hours. When you start to see the rib bone exposed from the meat about 1/4 to 1/2 inch, you're getting close. I insert a toothpick between the meat and the bone. When the toothpick will push, easily, the full length of the toothpick down into the meat, you're very close to done.
  • 11. Note: If I'm cooking a rack wet, then I'll start to apply the sauce during the last hour or so of cooking. I don't mind if the sugar in the sauces blackens just a smidge.....

BLUE SMOKE'S PORK RIBS

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Yield Makes 1 rack

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons dark-brown sugar
1 tablespoon superfine sugar
1 teaspoon celery salt
1 teaspoon table salt
1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground ancho pepper
1/4 teaspoon granulated onion
1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried sage
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 rack St. Louis-style pork ribs

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, stir together all ingredients except ribs. Rub spice mixture evenly over surface of ribs. Transfer to a smoker, and smoke following manufacturers' instructions.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ribs: Baby back ribs or spare ribs are both good choices for smoking. Baby back ribs are leaner and have a more delicate flavor, while spare ribs are meatier and have a more robust flavor.
  • Prepare the ribs: Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs to help them cook more evenly. You can also trim any excess fat from the ribs.
  • Season the ribs: There are many different ways to season pork ribs. You can use a simple rub made with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, or you can get more creative with your seasonings. Some popular options include brown sugar, paprika, cumin, and chili powder.
  • Smoke the ribs: Smoke the ribs at a low temperature (225-250 degrees Fahrenheit) for 3-4 hours, or until they are tender. You can use a smoker, a grill, or even an oven to smoke the ribs.
  • Baste the ribs: Basting the ribs with a mixture of apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, and water will help to keep them moist and prevent them from drying out.
  • Cook the ribs: Once the ribs are tender, you can either finish cooking them in the smoker or you can transfer them to a grill or oven to finish cooking. Cook the ribs until they are browned and slightly charred.

Conclusion:

Smoking pork ribs is a great way to enjoy this delicious and versatile meat. With a little planning and preparation, you can make fall-off-the-bone ribs that will be sure to impress your friends and family. So fire up your smoker and get started!
