2 racks Certified Angus Beef ® back ribs
4 tablespoons kosher salt
4 teaspoons black pepper
1 cup barbecue sauce
1/4 cup bourbon
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon hot chili sauce (like Sriracha)
Instructions

2. Trim excess fat and remove thin membrane from bone side of back ribs. Season ribs evenly with salt and pepper and smoke for 2 1/2-3 hours.

4. Preheat oven broiler to high.
5. Glaze rib meat with sauce, place under broiler for 3-5 minutes or until ribs begin to bubble (not scorch).
6. Slice between bones into individual ribs; serve.
Notes
Consistent Smoking Temperature: Maintain a steady smoker temperature of 250°F throughout the cooking process for even cooking.
Avoid Scorching: Watch the ribs closely while they are under the broiler to prevent the sauce from burning.
Resting Time: Let the ribs rest for a few minutes after broiling before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute, ensuring moist and flavorful ribs.
