I can’t even tell you when the last time was that I cook baby backs, but they were on sale for $2.49 a pound, so I picked some up for the freezer.

I’ve been wanting to try Oak Ridge BBQ’s Sweet Rib Rub, figured this would be the perfect time.

These were cooked on my MAK 1 Star running at 225° to start, then ramped it up to 275° about halfway through. Couldn’t tell you how long, I never really time the longer cooks. No foil no spritz, I typically just flip them once per hour for a little self-baste.

Wife likes sauce, so these were finished with Blues Hog Championship Blend. I must say, this was a winning combination, very tasty.

Plated with some Boston baked beans and slaw, both homemade.

They look great! I’ve been craving some of those, myself.
 
Looking good Tim! Costco business has them at 2.50/lb for quite a while now. I personally prefer spares but fam and friends love baby backs. I smoked some for Thanksgiving.
