Ingredients
- 2 Rack – Pork Back Ribs
-
2 T – Mustard
-
4 T – Notorious P.I.G. Rub
- 1 ½ LB – Bacon
- 2 – Shallots, minced
- 5 Clove – Garlic, minced
- 2 oz – Bourbon
-
½ C – Maple Syrup
-
½ C – Apple Cider Vinegar
-
½ C – Brown Sugar
Directions
- Preheat smoker to 250 degrees.
- Remove the membrane from the underside of the ribs. Trim any excess fat or broken bones from the ends of the ribs.
- Slather the ribs in mustard for a binder. Then season them generously with Notorious P.I.G.
- Place the ribs on the smoker, meat side up and smoke for 3 hours.
- Wrap the ribs in foil and then place them back on the smoker for 2-3 hours, or until they are around 200 degrees and probe tender.
- While the ribs are cooking, chop up the bacon and place it in a saucepan.
- Render the bacon over medium heat until the bacon is just barely crispy.
- Remove the bacon and drain off ½ of the rendered fat.
- Again, over medium heat, sauté the shallot and garlic until softened.
- Add remaining ingredients to the pot and stir well to combine.
- Reduce over medium heat until the sauce thickens.
Once the ribs are done, slather them in the bacon jam and return to the smoker to tack on the sauce. Place a tray under the ribs at this point to avoid starting a fire.
Rest ribs for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
