Coles Sweet Heat Ribs

How to make Coles Sweet Heat Ribs Recipe

Ingredients
1 rack St. Louis ribs, trimmed
Basic Rib Rub (see below)
Cole’s Sweet Heat BBQ Sauce

For Basic Rib Rub:
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup paprika
1/8 cup salt
1 tbsp black pepper
2 tbsp hot chili powder
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp onion powder
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp cinnamon

For Foil Wrap:
1 stick unsalted butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup Sriracha sauce
1/8 cup light corn syrup

Method:
Combine all Basic Rib Rub ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Season the ribs with the rub.

Smoke the ribs at 250 degrees F for 2 hours.

Wrap the ribs in foil with all the wrap ingredients and return to the smoker for 1 hour.

Unwrap the foil and apply Cole’s Sweet Heat BBQ Sauce.

Place the ribs back on smoker for 1/2 hour.

Slice into bones and serve immediately.

Notes:
Apply the two-zone indirect heat set up if no smoker is available. Use enough foil to wrap completely around the ribs. I recommend using 2 sheets for durability. Add chunks of smoke wood such as apple, cherry, or peach. Essentially, this applies a 2-1-1 method.See the 3-2-1 method on
