Bourbon? Bacon? Baby back ribs? What’s more to love? This perfect combo screams late summer BBQ flavors. These ribs are sweet, yet full of rich, deep and warm flavors. Bourbon lovers are going to have this one on repeat!

Ingredients

  • Meat Mitch Steer Season Rub
  • Bacon & Whiskey BBQ Sauce by Southern City Flavors
  • 2 racks Baby Back Ribs
  • Binder of Choice (we suggest olive or avocado oil, tallow, or mustard)
  • Bottle for Spritzing (filled with 2 cups Water, 2 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar, & 2 Tbsp BBQ Sauce)

Directions

  1. Preheat your smoker to 250 °F using hickory wood.
  2. Prepare the ribs: Remove membrane on the bone side, and any loose pieces of fat.
  3. Apply a small amount of binder to all sides.
  4. Season with Meat Mitch Steer Season Rub.
  5. Place the ribs on your smoker, bone side down, and smoke for 3.5 hours, spritzing every 30 minutes.
  6. Increase smoker temperature to 275 °F.
  7. Add Bacon & Whiskey BBQ Sauce by Southern City Flavors to the top of the ribs using a mop or brush. Be sure to coat 2 times, where the sauce is thick but not running over. Continue to smoke an additional 45 minutes to 1 hour (until the internal temperature of 195 °F and bones can twist).
  8. Rest for 20 minutes. Slice and enjoy!
