Turkey ribs are leaner, while pork shoulder is often more affordable.

🥗Healthier: homemade barbecue sauce

Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs.

Coat the ribs with yellow mustard, then apply a generous layer of BBQ rub. Let it sit for 15-30 minutes.

Preheat the smoker to 225°F and add post oak wood for a steady, mild smoke.

Place ribs on the smoker, meat side up. Smoke for 3 hours, spritzing with the vinegar-water mix every hour.

After 3 hours, wrap the ribs in foil with a bit of butter, honey, and a splash of apple cider vinegar. Return to the smoker for 2 more hours.

Unwrap the ribs, brush with BBQ sauce (if using), and smoke uncovered for another hour until the sauce sets and the ribs are tender.

Let the ribs rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
