Prep Time
15 MINUTES

Cook Time
4 HOURS

Pellets
HICKORY

INGREDIENTS

3 Rack (4-5 pounds) baby back ribs
3/4 Cup Traeger Perfect Pork Rub

STEPS
1

When ready to cook, set Traeger temperature to 225°F and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes.

2

To remove the membrane from the ribs, flip the ribs meat-side down and slide a butter knife under the membrane at the corner of a rack of ribs. Lift and loosen the membrane until it tears away from the ribs. Repeat with the remaining rack.

3

Season the ribs on both sides with the Traeger Perfect Pork Rub, ¼ cup per rack.

4

Insert the probe horizontally into the center of the meaty section of one rack of ribs, avoiding the bone. Place the ribs directly on the grill grates, meat-side up, then close the lid and smoke until the internal temperature reaches between 160-165°F, 2½-3½ hours. Remove the ribs from the grill and increase the temperature to 350°F

5

Wrap each rack of ribs tightly in aluminum foil, meat-side down.

6

Return the wrapped ribs to the grill, meat-side down, and re-insert the probe. Close the lid and cook until the internal temperature reaches 204°F, 35-50 minutes.

7

Remove the ribs from the grill and let rest for 30 minutes before unwrapping and slicing between the bones into individual ribs.
