FAQs
1. What makes these ribs cost a million baht?
The 'Million Baht' refers to the luxurious, high-quality ingredients and techniques used, not the actual cost. We're using premium cuts of pork, rare spices, and a long, slow cooking process to achieve exceptional flavor and tenderness.
2. Can I make this recipe without a smoker?
Yes! While a smoker delivers the best smoky flavor, you can achieve delicious results using a slow cooker, oven, or even a grill with indirect heat. Adjust cooking times accordingly.
3. How far in advance can I prepare the ribs?
The dry rub can be applied up to 24 hours in advance. For best results, refrigerate the ribs after applying the rub. The cooking time will remain relatively consistent.
With a little patience and these simple steps, you'll be enjoying restaurant-quality barbecue pork ribs right in your own kitchen. The rich flavors and melt-in-your-mouth texture will impress even the most discerning palate. So fire up the grill (or smoker!) and get ready to experience the magic of truly exceptional barbecue.
