How to Smoke Ribs Recipe on a Charcoal BBQ

Smoked Pork Ribs Char Flavoured on the Smoker.

Ingredients

1 Sheet of pork ribs per person membrane removed.
1 Jar of Hoi Sin Plum Sauce
1/2 Cup of Pecan Wood Pellets.
Silver Foi
Plum sauce
1 High quality jar of Hoi Sin Plum Sauce.

Method

Stage 1 Smoking
Use the indirect method on your hooded barbecue. When the charcoal is covered in white ash and ready for cooking. Add the wood pellets in a pot or silver foil case.

When the pellets start to smoke add the food to the barbecue, spaced so to aid circulation of the smoke. Close the lid. The next 30 minutes is when the food is smoke sealed so try and avoid opening the lid.

Smoke for 2 hours checking every 30 minutes to baste the ribs and reposition on the grill to ensure even cooking.

Stage 2 Char Flavouring
Place the ribs directly over the coals using tongs to char for that barbecued look and a slight charring will add even more taste. Don't overcook we just want the ribs to look good.
Lightly char both sides.

Stage 3 Slow BBQ
Remove the ribs and place on a double layer of foil, add the plum sauce and wrap, making sure no leaks of the sauce is possible. Slow cook indirectly for another 2 hours. Serve.
