Smoked Fireball Whiskey Ribs
Smoked Fireball Whiskey Ribs recipe uses a 3 2 1 smoking method on your pellet grill or smoker with an easy Fireball BBQ sauce!
Equipment
- Traeger/Pellet Grill
- Smoker
Ingredients
- 2 full racks pork ribs
- BBQ seasoning and/or Fireball seasoning (I got mine from Amazon)
- 2/3 cup Fireball Whiskey
- 2 1/2 cups BBQ sauce (store bought or homemade)
- your favorite hot sauce
Instructions
- Pat the ribs dry with a paper towel, and season all sides with BBQ seasoning or Fireball seasoning (add kosher salt and pepper if it's a salt free rub, I did a mix of both seasonings).
- Place the ribs in a smoker or pellet grill set to 225 degrees for 3 hours.
- Wrap each rib rack in foil and add 2 tablespoons of the Fireball to each foil packet. Place the foil wrapped ribs back into the smoker for 2 more hours.Note: Heat resistant gloves and a rib wrapping buddy makes this process go a little smoother.
- Put the BBQ sauce, a few dashes of hot sauce, and the remaining Fireball in a saucepan. Bring to a boil for a minute, stirring a few times, and remove from the heat.
- Unwrap the ribs, place back on the smoker for 1 more hour, brushing with the Fireball BBQ sauce periodically. Serve with any leftover sauce.
