Prepare your ribs by removing the casing on under side. Apply Dry Rub generously to the meat side of the ribs. 

Now prepare your smoker or grill.  If you don’t have a Green Egg (your should run out and get one:) but any smoker or grill will work.  Start by lighting the hardwood charcoal and soaking Applewood chips in water to moisten. Add apple chips to hot coals…

You are going to smoke the ribs for a total of five hours, on low indirect heat, at 250 degrees, with some steps in between.

Place the separator in grill to allow for indirect heat

Place Grill top on top of separator and then place grill rack onto grill top.  Place ribs bone side down onto grill rack.

Smoke for three hours on indirect heat at 200-250 degrees
After three hours of smoking, you are going to remove the ribs and the grill rack
Place 1 gallon of apple juice in a roasting pan, and submerge ribs in liquid. 
Cover with foil & Return to grill for 1 hour.

After 1 hour in the apple juice mixture, remove ribs and return directly to grill grate for the last hour of cooking.  Baste with barbeque sauce during last 30 minutes.
And here they are!!!!

The best ribs you’ll ever eat!!!!
