Trim and Prep the Ribs

Pre-Preparation

Trim the pork ribs of any excess fat and carefully remove the membrane on the back of the ribs.  Lather with mustard and season thoroughly with Sweet Teriyaki Sake seasoning. Place in the fridge for 2 hours to set.

Step 1

Smoke

Add the ribs to the smoker preheated to 225F on the indirect heat side.

Step 2

Wrap

After 3 hours, wrap the ribs in foil with the butter, brown sugar, and mirin.  This step is called the crutch.

Step 3

Make the Sauce

While the sweet teriyaki saki ribs finish smoking, make the bbq sauce with the ketchup, saki, rice wine vinegar, garlic chile paste, honey, mirin, and black garlic sauce.
