Weber Smokey Mountain Ribs

Pork ribs are not hard to master and getting them cooked perfectly is something that anyone can do. They happen to be my absolute favorite thing to cook on the Weber Smokey Mountain Smoker. Over the past few years I have learned a few tips and tricks that have helped me to turn out great smoked ribs almost every time that I would like to share. Cooking time: 4 to 5 hours (At 275 degrees) Ingredients: Pork ribs (Spare Ribs or Baby Backs) All-Purpose Rub Apple Cider Vinegar Mopping Sauce 1/2 cup Dijon Mustard 1/2 cup Honey 1/2 cup Sriracha Directions: The Prep In a small bowl mix the rub ingredients .

Excellent article on setting up a Weber Smokey Mountain Smoker from Amazing Ribs . There are a number of bullet-shaped charcoal smokers out there and they are pretty easy to use. The best is the Weber Smokey Mountain (WSM) which now comes in three sizes. Seasoning and calibrating your smoker with dry runs The first thing to do after you assemble your new grill or smoker is to season it and calibrate it by doing a few dry runs without food. This will burn off any manufacturer's grease, and give you a sense for how to set it up to hit the two important target temps that almost all my recipes use: 225°F and 325°F. Of course, in order to do this, you absolutely positively must have a good digital oven thermometer. I don't care how much you spent, the bi-metal dial thermometer that came with it is cheap and unreliable and likely to be off by as much as 50°F. Worse still, it is in the dome, and the temp down on the grate where the meat sits is much different. Like a musician,

The graphic, from Northshore Fireplace , explains the difference between smoking, barbecuing, and grilling meat in addition to explaining how to smoke without a smoker. Additionally, it suggests the best types of wood to use when you’re smoking pork, beef, lamb, poultry, ham, or fish.
