American barbecue has never been a favorite of mine unless its ribs.

It doesnt matter if theyre spare ribs or baby back ribs, I love it.

The cook, Malcom Reed says theyre American as apple pie ribs.

At first, I wondered what the flavor would taste like.

I believe the ribs would have an amazing balance of apple flavor without it being too sweet or fruity.

It takes a process to make these, but they come out so juicy.

The vinegar lets the seasoning stick onto the ribs.

Then, apply kosher salt on both sides and let the salt work in the meat for 15-20 minutes.

Next, add an apple rub to both sides and let that sit for 15-20 minutes too.

Then, cook the ribs on a pit for 250 degrees with apple pellets.

The ribs smoke for a little over two hours.

For every 45 minutes spritz them with a mixture of equal parts apple juice and the apple cider vinegar.

This will allow the apple pie flavor to be more distinct.

This makes me crave barbeque because of how caramelized the sauce sets in the ribs.
