How to cook deliciously - Baby Back Ribs, Smoked to Perfection
1 . Stage
Place 3 fist-sized chunks of wood in a smoker and heat to 250 degrees F (121 degrees C).
2 . Stage
While the wood burns down, mix salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, and cumin together in a bowl. Apply rub to both sides of ribs.
3 . Stage
Add ribs to the smoker, bone-side down, once a thin blue smoke appears. Smoke for 2 hours.
4 . Stage
Reduce heat to 225 to 250 degrees F (107 to 121 degrees C). Wrap ribs lightly in aluminum foil to retain juices. Continue smoking for 1 1/2 hours more.
5 . Stage
Remove foil and continue to smoke until meat is tender but still stays on the bone, about 1 hour more, brushing lightly with barbeque sauce in the last 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
