Equipment

  • Smoker

Ingredients

  • 2 racks Ribs spare or baby back
  • Down With the Swine rub
  • 1 stick Butter
  • 1 cup Brown sugar
  • Honey
  • BBQ sauce your favorite (or make your own)
  • 8 Sub buns
  • 1 Onion thinly sliced
  • Pickles

Instructions

  • Fire up your smoker to 225 degrees using indirect heat and your choice of wood. I like pecan or cherry for ribs.
  • Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs, then cover with Down With the Swine rub.
  • Put in the smoker and let go for 2 hours.
  • After 2 hours, place ribs in foil along with a few pats of butter, some brown sugar, and a drizzle of honey.
  • Seal the foil and place back into the smoker for 2 more hours.
  • After 2 hours, open up the foil, being careful not to let the juice drip out.
  • Mop your ribs with your favorite sauce and close the lid. Let smoke for another 15-20 minutes until the sauce sets.
  • Remove from the smoker and carefully pull out the bones.
  • Slice the ribs into sections of 3 or 4 ribs each, about the size of your buns.
  • Place a rib section onto the bun and top with thinly sliced onions and pickles.
