  3. Place ribs in smoker and cook, brushing with barbecue sauce every 1½ hours for 4 hours or until very tender, changing chunks as needed.
  4. Brush meat side of ribs liberally with sauce and place meat side down on a very, very hot grill until well browned and slightly charred.
  5. Slice into one-rib portions and serve with additional sauce.
