Introduction:
Are you tired of the same old BBQ ribs? Are you looking to spice things up with a deliciously sweet and spicy twist? Look no further than the Traeger Timberline XL grill, Killer Hogs The BBQ Rub, and Malcom Reed’s recipe for Honey Jalapeño Ribs. In this article, we’ll go through the steps to make mouth-watering ribs that will be the hit of any summer BBQ.
Ingredients:
The secret to these delicious ribs is in the ingredients. You’ll need Killer Hogs The BBQ Rub, Heath Riles Garlic Jalapeno Rub, Mike’s Hot Honey, Killer Hogs Sweet Fire Pickles, and Malcom Reed’s special Honey Jalapeño Rib Glaze. Don’t worry; these ingredients can easily be found at your local BBQ supply store.
Seasoning:
First, season your ribs generously with Killer Hogs The BBQ Rub and Heath Riles Garlic Jalapeno Rub. Make sure to cover both sides of the ribs and pat the rubs into the meat. Let the ribs sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the rubs to penetrate the meat.
Smoking:
Preheat your Traeger Timberline XL grill to 275°F and add your favorite wood pellets to the hopper. Hickory or applewood pellets are great options for smoking ribs. Once your grill has reached the desired temperature, place your ribs directly on the grates and close the lid. Let the ribs smoke for about 3 hours, or until they achieve a beautiful color and pull back from the bones when ready.
Wrapping:
After the ribs have smoked for 3 hours, it’s time to wrap them. Lay out two pieces of aluminum foil and place the ribs in the middle. Drizzle Mike’s Hot Honey over the ribs and add a few Killer Hogs Sweet Fire Pickles on top. Wrap the ribs tightly in the foil and return them to the grill for another 2 hours.
Glazing:
For the final touch, it’s time to add the Honey Jalapeño Rib Glaze. Mix up a batch of the glaze with jalapeños, butter, brown sugar, honey, and Killer Hogs Vinegar Sauce. Brush the glaze generously over the wrapped ribs and place them back on the grill for an additional 30 minutes, or until the glaze is caramelized and sticky.
FAQs:
