Sticky Bourbon Brown Ale Pork Ribs
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Cook Time: 6 hours
- Total Time: 6 hours 15 minutes
- Yield: 4–6 servings 1x
Ingredients
- 1–2 racks of baby back ribs
- Spiceology X Derek Wolf Sticky Bourbon Brown Ale blend
- Your favorite BBQ sauce or mustard
- 1/4 cup butter per rack of ribs
- 1/4 cup brown sugar per rack of ribs
- 3 Tbsp maple syrup or honey per rack of ribs
- Apple cider for spritzing
Instructions
- Heat your smoker to 250°F.
- Remove the membrane on the back side of your ribs by placing a fork 2-3 bones in on the clean cut side. Pull the membrane up and then pull back to remove it.
- Add your BBQ sauce or mustard in a thin layer as a binder for the rub.
- Generously season your ribs as these are going to be a dry rib.
- Place on your smoker and let smoke for 2 1/2-3 hours, spritzing with apple cider every 30ish minutes.
- Get your foil or BBQ paper ready with butter, brown sugar, more Spiceology Sticky Bourbon Brown Ale seasoning, more apple cider, and maple syrup and wrap up tight.
- Smoke for another 2 hours wrapped.
- Remove from wrap and smoke for another 30 minutes to 1 hour so the glaze formed in the wrap tacks up and gets nice and sticky.
- Slice the ribs and enjoy your labor of love.
