Char-Griller Ambassador James Llorens is a true offset smoking enthusiast, but he tried out the new Gravity 980 to make a batch of his famous ribs and loved the results. Check out his Gravity 980 Rib Recipe Below!

Instructions

1. Remove the membrane using a paper towel.
2. Using a sharp knife trim and remove any access meat and fat from top/bottom of the ribs.
3. Tip: If you can pull any fat, you should remove it.
4. Apply coating of mustard as a binder on both sides of the ribs.
5. Tip: apply mustard binder and season the bottom of the ribs first, this will help prevent the top/meat side seasonings from being messy.
6. Tip: avoid applying the hot sauce or rubs on the sides of the ribs. This helps the exposed bones from getting burnt during the smoking/grilling process.
7. Using your favorite BBQ Rub, apply even coating on the ribs.
8. Ribs are now ready to be smoked.
