Coat each rack with hot sauce to act as a binder and season thoroughly on all sides. Make sure to get the edges as well.
Preheat your smoker to 250-275 degrees and place the ribs directly on the grate.
Optional step, spritz the outside with apple cider vinegar every hour or so if the ribs are looking dry.
When the ribs hit 205 degrees internal temperature, start to check for tenderness. You should be able to insert your thermometer into the meat without any resistance, like a hot knife into butter. If there is resistance, continue smoking and check again in 20 minutes.
When the ribs are probe tender, tightly wrap them in aluminum foil and let them rest at room temperature for an hour.
Remove from the wrap, slice between each bone, serve and enjoy!
Notes
be patient, do not increase smoker temps to expedite the cook.Make sure to cool off or rest for at least 1 hour after the short ribs are removed from the smoker.
