The Perfect Smoked Ribs Recipe

Cooking has been considered a form of art, just like making a smoked ribs recipe the right way. Smoking ribs is a favourite family dish, whether it is done in the comfort of the home or being ordered at restaurants. Smoked ribs recipe is simple and requires a good kind of pork or beef ribs that are smoke barbequed well on a griller or oven with a flavourful marinade that is applied onto the ribs.

The kind of marinade that is applied to coat the ribs is the cook's preference depending on the chosen flavor. The marinade could taste sweet, sweet and spicy or others prefer sweet and hot. The secret to attaining good smoked ribs recipe is in the method used in cooking the ribs. The initial consideration is whether or not to use a good quality wood to smoke the ribs with. The wood for this kind should be untreated, which means it is free of any chemicals and is not rotten.

The next thing to consider for cooking a smoked ribs recipe is the smoker where the actual cooking will be done. The smoker can also be used as a charcoal grill if preferred. With the smoker, start the fire by using charcoal rather than wood on the smoking section of the smoker. When the fire is ready, spread the racks of ribs by the meat compartment of the smoker, making sure that it is placed far from the heat source to prevent burning. If the smoker does not have a divider to separate the heat source to the ribs, use brick or large stones for this. The point created here is allowing the smoke to get into the ribs without it directly hitting the heat source.

To create a good smoked ribs recipe is to close up the air valves to allow minimal air to flow out and have a low fire. This will trap the toxic part of the smoke, which is carbon dioxide, to escape into the atmosphere. Every couple of hours the ribs should be turned to allow an even cooking of the smoked ribs recipe. If necessary, add wood or charcoal so as to keep the fire alive while still barbequing the smoke ribs. The more wood or charcoal is added to the smoker, the more the smoking process is achieved. When the wood burns down, the smoker's valve could be opened to allow the airflow to exit. Smoked ribs recipe will still taste good even if the airflow is not so consistent.

To achieve a good recipe, the fire in the smoker should never die out. Make sure that the ribs cool off in the smoker before cooking is done and then have it heated up again by restarting the fire. It takes about 3-5 hours for the recipe to cook. Allow it to cool down first before serving. It is also advised to wrap the smoked ribs in a good quality foil to seal its smoky flavor.
