Ingredients
- 2 racks of St. Louis Ribs

- 1 tbsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tbsp kosher salt
- 1 tbsp coarse ground black pepper
Spritz
- 1/2 pineapple juice

Instructions
- Preheat smoker to 275°F. Most pellet grills don’t need it, but you can add a pan of water in the corner of the smoker to keep moisture inside.
- If not removed yet, remove membrane on the bottom of the ribs or ask your butcher to remove it for you.
- Combine dry rub seasonings and sprinkle onto ribs on all sides.
- Let the ribs sit out on the counter for 1 hour to let the meat come to room temperature and the rub to adhere well. This will ensure a more even cook.
- Place ribs on the smoker and smoke at 275°F for 3 hours, spritzing every hour after the first.
- After 3 hours, place ribs in an aluminum pan and pour in 1 cup of pineapple juice. Place a sheet of aluminum foil over the top and crimp to seal the edges.
- Place pan on the smoker and cook for 2 more hours.
- After 2 hours, remove the aluminum foil covering the pan and glaze the ribs with a heavy coating of BBQ sauce.
- Continuing cooking the ribs for 1 hour to set the sauce and finish cooking.
- Remove the ribs from the smoker and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Slice ribs between each bone.
- Serve and enjoy!
