My Rights As An American Report post Posted January 31, 2020 Really simple. Made two 3 pound cuts from the whole belly. Used one of the online recipe cures that looked good and made it myself. Rubbed it on and vacuum sealed it with a bit of air still inside to move juices around. Placed them in the fridge and flipped everyday. Day 7 rinsed them off completely and patted them dry. Smoked them at 200 for just over two hours with cherry wood and apple juice. Next time I will reduce the heat and increase the time a bit I think. Slow down the amount of smoke I use. But no complaints on how it turned out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muledeerarea33? Report post Posted January 31, 2020 Did you use Prague or tender quick? I’ve used both but feel safer with the Prague. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CJNAZ Report post Posted January 31, 2020 Guessing it was a pellet smoker such as Treager, Camp Chef? I spritz apple juice on ribs towards the end of the cook. Did you do something similar with these. They look fantastic and I am interested in trying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is a pan for liquids to keep meats moist or flavored. Just put apple juice in there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
