Description

This is an easy recipe for ribs which won’t be tough, like smoked ribs, or fall off the bone, like braised ribs. These ribs are done the right way, and I’ve never had better ribs than this.

  • 1 cup mesquite chips, soaked
  • 1 (2 pound) slab baby back pork ribs
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

  • 1 teaspoon ancho chile powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground thyme
  • 1 cup barbeque sauce

  2. spread soaked mesquite woodchips on top of charcoal embers.
  3. Remove membrane from ribs. Combine salt
  4. pepper
  5. paprika
  6. chile powder
  7. and thyme in a small bowl; rub into ribs. Cut the slab of ribs in half.
  8. Place ribs over indirect heat; close the lid. Cook for 20 minutes
  9. then brush ribs with barbeque sauce. Cover and continue cooking for 30 more minutes.
