Introduction

There is nothing quite like the taste of tender, juicy ribs that have been slow-smoked to perfection. As someone who has always loved grilled and barbecued foods, I was excited to try cooking baby back ribs on the Pit Barrel Cooker for the first time. After watching several YouTube videos and learning all about the cooking process, I decided to give it a shot. The results were even better than I could have imagined. In this article, I will take you through my experience of cooking baby back ribs on the Pit Barrel Cooker and share some tips and tricks that I learned along the way.

Supplies Needed

Before getting started, it’s important to gather all the necessary supplies. Here’s what you’ll need:

• Pit Barrel Cooker
• Cherry wood pellets
• Two racks of baby back ribs
• Rib rub of your choice
• Aluminum foil
• Meat thermometer

The Cooking Process

1. Prepping the Ribs:
   Before putting the ribs on the Pit Barrel Cooker, it’s important to apply the rub first. Take your ribs out of the package and remove the thin membrane on the back of the ribs, also known as the silverskin. Then, apply the rub generously on both sides of the ribs. Once the ribs are fully rubbed, put them in the fridge to chill for at least an hour.

2. Starting the Pit Barrel Cooker:
   Fill the coal basket with charcoal and light it. While the coals are lighting, add cherry wood pellets on top. Once the coals are ready, put the grill grate on top and then hang the ribs on the hooks. Close the lid and let the ribs cook for approximately 3 hours.

3. Checking the Temperature:
   It’s important to check the temperature of the ribs with a meat thermometer to ensure they are fully cooked. When the ribs reach an internal temperature of 205°F, take them off the Pit Barrel Cooker and wrap them tightly with aluminum foil. Let them rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Conclusion

In conclusion, my experience cooking baby back ribs on the Pit Barrel Cooker was a complete success. The ribs were smoky and flavorful, with tender meat that fell off the bone. If you’re looking to up your barbecue game, I highly recommend trying this cooking method. Not only is it simple and easy to do, but the results are incredibly delicious.
