Learn how long to smoke ribs at 250 degrees with this recipe. I like smoked ribs that are buttery and crisp on the outside, moist and tender on the inside, and stay on the bone. This recipe is a variation of the popular 2-2-1 technique for smoking baby back ribs.
Ingredients
- 3 racks pork baby back ribs
- 2 tablespoons salt
- 2 tablespoons ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- ¼ cup barbeque sauce (such as KC Masterpiece® Original), or to taste
Directions
Step 1
Place 3 fist-sized chunks of wood in a smoker and heat to 250 degrees F (121 degrees C).
Step 2
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.
Step 3
Add ribs to the smoker, bone-side down, once a thin blue smoke appears. Smoke for 2 hours.
Step 4
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.
Step 5
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).
