The result? Ribs with a deep, mahogany bark that crackles ever so slightly with each bite, giving way to intensely flavorful and unbelievably moist meat. You’ll taste the quality of the pork, the subtle kiss of the smoke, and nothing else. This no-wrap, no-sauce approach isn’t about hiding flaws; it’s about showcasing the inherent deliciousness of perfectly smoked pork.
