The folks at Halftime Smoker shared one of their smokers with us to review and we were thrilled to get the opportunity to try out a few racks of ribs.
We were definitely skeptical but were pleasantly surprised with the outcome. Not too shabby, y’all!
Check out this recipe for three racks of ribs, featuring Heath Riles Garlic Butter rub, Heath Riles Parmesan Garlic Seasoning, and Graza olive oil. In only 75 minutes, the Halftime Smoker had these racks DONE.
