32 ounces hunt's ketchup
8 ounces soy sauce
4 ounces Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon garlic powder
8 ounces apple cider vinegar
4 ounces apple juice
1/4 cup granny smith apple (grated)
1/4 cup onion (grated)
1 tablespoon white pepper (to taste)
MOP
8 ounces apple juice
GUEST OF HONOR
5 -7 lbs pork ribs

Preparation

Mix rub ingredients and store in air tight container. Recommend making a triple batch so you'll have some for later.
Remove membrane from bone side of ribs. Rub ribs generously with rub, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate over night.
Remove wrap from ribs and bring to room temperature. Re-season with rub.
Bring grill/smoker up to around 200 degrees F. Using indirect heat, smoke ribs for 5-7 hours. Turn and baste with mop every hour.
For the finishing sauce, combine all ingredients in a sauce pan and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for one hour.
For the smoke, use apple wood chips soaked in water. Keep the temperature as close to 200 as possible.
Apply finishing sauce during the last hour--careful not to burn. Ribs are done when about 3/8 inch of bones are exposed and the rib bones come loose from the meat when twisted.
Remove from heat, re-season with rub mixture, and let sit for at least 30 min prior to cutting into 2-rib portions.
