Preheat smoker. Preheat your smoker to 250 degrees F using your favorite hardwood.
Season. Slather the rib tips on all sides with mustard. Season on all sides with Rib Rub.
4 pounds rib tips, 1/4 cup Hey Grill Hey Rib Rub, 2 Tablespoons yellow mustard
Smoke. Place the rib tips on the smoker. Then, close the lid and smoke for 2 hours.
Braise. Tear off a large sheet of aluminum foil and set it on a large baking sheet. Transfer the rib tips to the foil and fold up the edges of the foil. Pour braising ingredients on the ribs. Toss gently to coat. Seal the foil tightly to create a pouch around the ribs and return to the smoker.
1/2 cup apple juice, 1/2 cup salted butter, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup honey
Second smoke. Smoke the foiled rib tips for an additional 60-90 minutes, or until the rib tips are very tender and reading between 195-200 degrees F.
Slather and finish. Remove the ribs from the foil pouch and return to the smoker grates. Baste liberally in Everything BBQ sauce and smoke for an additional 15-30 minutes or until the sauce is tacky and set on the ribs.
1 cup Hey Grill Hey Everything BBQ Sauce
Rest and serve. Transfer your ribs to a serving platter and rest for 10-15 minutes, or until cooled to around 160 degrees F and serve.
