Hickory and brown sugar is an honest combination — no tricks required, just smoke and sweetness doing exactly what they're meant to. Brush it in the last twenty minutes so the sugars glaze rather than catch on the ribs. Season the pork first with Butcher's Axe Ranger Red rub for a bolder base. Snag night? Glaze them in the last few minutes and serve with Tracklements Perfect Ploughman's Pickle.
