Smoky Hickory BBQ Ribs

These smoky BBQ ribs are great for a family feast or a get-together on the weekend because they taste great and are tender.

Ingredients:

• 2 racks of baby back ribs
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons paprika
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/2 cup hickory wood chips, soaked in water
• BBQ sauce of your choice

Instructions:

Get your smokehouse ready by heating it up to 107F 225C

Take the membrane off of the back of the ribs and use paper towels to dry them

Put brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl

Mix them together to make the dry rub

Spread a lot of the dry rub on both sides of the ribs to make sure it covers them evenly

Put the hickory wood chips in the wood chip tray in the smoker

Smoke the ribs in a smokehouse that has already been heated for three hours, making sure the temperature stays the same and adding more wood chips as needed

After three hours, brush the ribs with your favorite BBQ sauce and smoke them for another one to two hours, or until they reach a temperature of 190F 88C

After taking the ribs out of the smoker, let them rest for 10 minutes

Then you can cut them up and serve them
