Boneless Ribs on a Stick

Incredibly easy to make, and tasty as all get out! Just take a boneless pork butt and cube it into 1″ pieces. Season and coat well with your favorite pork rub. I used Traeger Pork & Poultry rub. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, overnight if you are that organized.

When ready to cook, skewer the cubes onto individual sticks. The pictures above represent 6oz of meat on each stick. Smoke at the lowest setting on your grill (165F is what I use) for 2 hours. Turn the heat up to 250 and cook until IT gets to 190F (about another 60-90 minutes). Sear over high direct heat for 1 minute/side. After the 4 minute sear, brush with your favorite BBQ sauce or two, and return to the smoker for another 10-15 minutes to tighten up the sauce.

Review from my son: “Crispy and tasty on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside!” These can be served as an appetizer, or as your main dish. They are surprisingly good!

Two serving plates for 2 different sauces.
