When I thought about Mothers Day I thought I'd like to try smoking some baby back ribs. I LOVE Baby back ribs!!! So I set about looking for a rub and some ideas for smoking. I've only made these ribs once as we are not big meat eaters.
I found lots of info on-line and found a rub made from paprika, chili peppers, powdered garlic, and black pepper. Fortunately we still have plenty of dried paprika and chilies from our garden so everything is fresh.
In the meantime I was smoking almonds for Nate. I found that they must be tossed every 1/2 hour so that they do not burn. I also tried smoking a tray of almonds tossed with some spray on Canola oil and then ground chilies. Most of the chili powder did not adhere so I must research that.
Today we smoked the ribs for 6 hours. I think it was a little too long, they are really good but just slightly dry. I'll try 5 hours next time.
