Instructions

Night Before

Remove membrane from underside of ribs. Soak ribs in Mountain Dew overnight in refrigerator. Soak wood chips in water.

Day of Smoking

Drain the Mountain Dew from the ribs. Combine spices and rub over ribs and let sit in refrigerator for a few hours.
Heat coals in smoker. Once at ideal range, place ribs in smoker on top rack. (We placed chicken drumettes on bottom rack to get the most use out of the charcoal.)
Smoke for approximately 4 hours. During the last half hour, generously apply Sweet Baby Ray’s sauce. Check to ensure that the internal temperature of ribs is 195° Fahrenheit before removing from the smoker.
