Ingredients:

1 (or more) racks of baby back ribs

Yellow mustard

Three Little Pigs Touch of Cherry rub

1 jar maraschino cherries

3 small pats of butter (or squeeze butter)

3 tbsp brown sugar

BBQ sauce of choice (I used Sweet Baby Rays Honey BBQ)


Prep:

Trim the ribs of excess fat and silver skin and remove membrane from reverse side.

Slather in yellow mustard as a base coating.

Liberally apply TLP Touch of Cherry rub to all sides.


Cook:

Smoke the ribs at 225° with fruit wood pellets using 3-1-1 method:

Place the ribs on the smoker for 3 hours without peeking


Remove and tightly double wrap in foil - in the foil put 2-3 small pats of butter, 3 tbsp brown sugar, 4 tbsp of maraschino cherry juice, a few cut up cherries, and 1 tsp Touch of Cherry rub - then place back on the grill/smoker for 1 additional hour


Remove again and unwrap from foil (saving the foil/juices) and apply BBQ sauce of choice mixed with more maraschino cherry juice then put back on grill/smoker for 1 more hour.


Post-cook:

Rewrap in foil and let rest for 10 min before slicing and eating
