I started doing ribs on the gas grill. Results were good but getting good smoke and keeping the temperature down was difficult. Purchased the Camp Chef 40 smoker late last Fall. Works very well.

This is my homemade recipe for the rub.
1/2 C chili powder
1/3 C light brown sugar
1 Tbs pickling salt
2 Tbs ground black pepper
2 tsp cayenne pepper
The first smoked ribs I ever tasted were from 17th Street Bar and Grill in Murphysboro, IL. We had read about the place in the Illinois tour guide so decided to stop there on a trip back from Georgia a few years ago. The ribs were excellent. Now I’m hooked on smoked ribs.
