Ingredients:

- 1 rack of pork ribs (baby back or spare ribs)

- Prescott Spice Co's Chipotle Dust

- Prescott Spice Co's Orange Balsamic Vinegar

- BBQ sauce (optional)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ribs:

- Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs, if present, to allow for better seasoning penetration.

- Pat the ribs dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

2. Season the Ribs:

- Generously season both sides of the ribs with Prescott Spice Co's Chipotle Dust, rubbing it into the meat to ensure even coverage.

- Let the ribs sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to allow the seasoning to penetrate the meat.

3. Preheat the Smoker:

- Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C), using your choice of wood chips or chunks for smoke flavor. Applewood or hickory pairs well with pork ribs.

4. Smoke the Ribs (3 Hours):

- Place the seasoned ribs directly on the smoker grate, meat side up.

- Close the smoker lid and maintain a steady temperature of 225°F (107°C) throughout the smoking process.

- Smoke the ribs for 3 hours, allowing them to absorb the smoky flavor.

5. Wrap the Ribs (2 Hours):

- After 3 hours of smoking, remove the ribs from the smoker.

- Lay out a double layer of heavy-duty aluminum foil large enough to fully encase the ribs.

- Place the ribs meat side down on the foil and drizzle with Prescott Spice Co's Orange Balsamic Vinegar.

- Wrap the ribs tightly in the foil, ensuring there are no leaks.

- Return the wrapped ribs to the smoker and continue cooking for 2 hours.

6. Finish the Ribs (1 Hour):

- Carefully unwrap the foil from the ribs and discard any accumulated liquid.

- Place the ribs back on the smoker grate, meat side up.

- If desired, brush the ribs with BBQ sauce for added flavor and caramelization.

- Smoke the ribs for an additional 1 hour, or until they reach your desired level of tenderness and the meat begins to pull back from the bones.

7. Serve and Enjoy:

- Once the ribs are cooked to perfection, remove them from the smoker and let them rest for a few minutes.

- Slice the ribs between the bones and serve with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, baked beans, or cornbread.

- Enjoy your delicious smoked pork ribs infused with the bold flavors of Prescott Spice Co's Chipotle Dust and Orange Balsamic Vinegar!
