Smoking Ribs on Char Broil Big Easy
Visit my other site, For The Wing, for all things chicken-wing!
I could not have been happier with how great these St. Louis-style ribs on the Char-Broil Big Easy came out. They were cooked high-and-fast on my Char-Broil Big Easy.The Big Easy is a great cooker for a whole lot of things. Although I've cooked baby back ribs on my Big Easy, my favorite rib is the spare rib because of the additional fat (flavor). When you cut them St. Louis-style you end up with a beautiful piece of pig meat, perfect for the Big Easy.
Making ribs on the Big Easy couldn't get much easier. I rubbed down the ribs the night before with my no-burn rib rub. The next day I fired up my Big Easy. I decided to coil my ribs so they fit in the bottom of the cooker. If I'd had put in the Big Easy bunk bed basket I think I could've cooked two full racks at once. You could also cut the rack in half and hang it in the cooker using the Big Easy rib hooks.
It took about ninety minutes until the meat was starting to pull back from the bones. I slathered some of my Bourbon Street BBQ sauce onto the ribs and let them cook just a bit longer. This gave them a bit of a crunchy outer layer.
When the ribs were done I removed them from the cooker, uncoiled them, and let them rest for about 15 minutes. Then I sliced them and proceeded to enjoy some of the best ribs I've had. Not fall-off-the-bone ribs, those are overdone. You want a little tug, a little bite, to your ribs. These have that. And they're juicy, oh so juicy, just like everything else I've cooked on the Big Easy. These are great ribs.

St. Louis Ribs on the Char-Broil Big Easy
I could not have been happier with how great these St. Louis-style ribs on the Char-Broil Big Easy came out.
Servings 4
Calories 630 kcal
- 1 rack spare ribs cut St. Louis style
- No-Burn Rib Rub
- Your favorite BBQ sauce if desired (Note that if you use a sauce that contains a lot of sugar you will really need to keep an eye on the ribs or the sauce may burn. I used my Bourbon Street sauce, which definitely has brown sugar in it!)
- Big Easy kabobs or rib hooks optional
-
Place the ribs on a large piece of foil and sprinkle rub on both sides.
-
Rub in slightly then seal.
-
Refrigerate for up to 12 hours.
-
Fire up your Big Easy.
-
Cook the ribs for 90 minutes. You should see the meat pulling back from the bone about1/2″ – 1″. If not, let them cook a bit longer.
-
Slather the ribs with sauce, if desired. Note that if you use a sauce that contains a lot of sugar you will really need to keep an eye on the ribs or the sauce may burn. Return ribs to cooker for 15-30 minutes or until they have a nice crust on them.
-
Remove, let rest for 10-15 minutes, then slice and serve. If desired, have additional warmed BBQ sauce on the side for dipping.
To fit the ribs into the cooker you'll either need to coil them as I did (I found this to be easier to do with the Big Easy kabob insert as a kind of holder) or cut them if they are too long and use theBig Easy rib hooks to hang them.
