Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 racks beef back ribs

Binder & Dry Rub

  • 3 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder

BBQ Sauce

  • ½ cup bbq sauce Traeger Sweet & Heat

Instructions

  • Wash ribs with fresh water and dry with paper towels
  • Remove the membrane by sliding a dull knife under membrane on the underside of ribs and pulling off while holding membrane with paper towel for easy grip.
  • Rub mustard over both sides of ribs & season both sides liberally with dry rub. Pre-heat smoker to 220°F
  • Place ribs meat side up on smoker grates and smoke for 5-7 hours until the internal temperature is 200°F. Spritz with apple cider vinegar every 30-45 minutes to keep meat moist while cooking.
  • Once 200°F IT is reached, brush on BBQ sauce and cook another 20 minutes to allow sauce to set on the ribs.
  • Remove from grill and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Cut in between each rib bone for individual rib pieces.
  • Serve with your favorite side dishes for the perfect meal. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Make sure to remove the membrane to prevent stringy nastiness getting in your teeth when eating.
  • If all of your ribs are fall off the bone, they are over done. They will still be tasty, but overdone. Cook to 200°F internal temp by checking with a meat thermometer.
  • Cooking a lot of ribs? Use a rib rack to stand ribs on end giving you more space on the smoker
  • Substitute apple juice for apple cider vinegar if needed. Both work great!
