- Mix all dry ingredients together in a small bowl.
- Lay a sheet of tin foil down and place ribs place meaty side down. Cut off the membrane by sliding a knife under and pull (if it is does not easily come off don't worry about it some are pretty thin).
- Slather about half of the mustard on the underside of the rib until covered. Add about 1/3 of the dry rub and apply to the ribs.
- Flip the ribs over and apply the mustard to meaty side of the ribs and rub in the remainder of the dry rub.
- Transport the ribs to the smoker. Smoke for 3 hours. The ribs should be exposed to the smoke.
- After the ribs have smoked for 3 hours, create a 'boat' with the tinfoil and pour 1/2 cup of apple juice into the tin foil and wrap the tinfoil TIGHTLY around the ribs. Cook for 2 more hours at 225 F.
- After 2 hours, discard the tin foil and cook the ribs for 1 more hour. If you want BBQ sauce apply it to the ribs in the last 10-15 minutes of cooking. Enjoy!
