Ingredients

  • 1–2 racks pork ribs (baby back or St. Louis-style)
  • Flavor Seed’s Smoke 'Em If You Got 'Em seasoning
  • Avocado oil (or water, if preferred)
  • 3–4 tbsp butter
  • 2–3 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1–2 tbsp raw honey
  • 2–3 tbsp your favorite BBQ sauce
  • Optional: extra Smoke 'Em seasoning for finishing

Directions

  1. Pat the ribs dry.
  2. Lightly coat them in avocado oil as a binder. Avoid mustard, honey, syrup, or mayo.
  3. Apply Smoke ‘Em If You Got ‘Em generously on all sides.
  4. Let the ribs “sweat” for about 30 minutes at room temperature. This helps the rub absorb and gives the meat a rich color.
  5. Preheat your Kamado-style grill (like a Char-Griller Akorn) to 250–275°F.
  6. Place the ribs on the grill, meat side up.
  7. Cook for 1 hour per side, flipping once.
  8. Aim for an internal temp of 170–175°F before pulling them off the grill.
  9. In a large foil pan or wrapped in foil, add:• A few pats of butter• A sprinkle of brown sugar• A light drizzle of raw honey• A light coat of BBQ sauce
  10. Cover tightly and place in a 300°F oven for about 40 minutes.
  11. Once the ribs are probe tender, return them to the grill.
  12. Cook uncovered for 10 minutes to let the sauce tack up and form a perfect glaze.
