Hey Guys,
Don’t you agree that there are very few things in life that can beat a rack of perfectly smoked barbecue ribs? Whether it is pork or beef, wet or dry rib rubs, the secret to smoking the perfect ribs is perfecting temperature and time.
If you are using a charcoal grill, all you need to do is build your fire to one side of the grill and do your cooking on the other. You can also create a smoky environment by placing a small pan with apple juice or water underneath your meat.
For most barbeque recipes, if I am smoking in the house, I find that the ideal temperature is 250 to 255 degrees Fahrenheit. At this temperature, it will take roughly 4 hours for baby back ribs to cook, while St. Louis-cut ribs will cook in about 4 hours.
I found a great guide about how long to smoke ribs -
