Instructions

1. Set up the Weber kettle for two-zone indirect cooking: hot coals on one side, a half-size aluminum pan on the other. Add hickory wood chunks to the coals.
2. Drizzle the ribs with hot sauce on all sides and season them well with the honey chipotle rub.
3. Pour two cans of beer into the aluminum pan and set the grate on the grill. Place the ribs over the pan and adjust the top and bottom vents to one-quarter open to hold 300°F.
4. Smoke the ribs for 2 hours.
5. Wrap the ribs in a double layer of foil with 4 pats of butter, hot honey, more rub, and a line of vinegar sauce on each side. Seal tightly.
6. Return the ribs to the grill meat side down and cook until tender, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
7. Unwrap the ribs and place them on a fresh piece of foil. Brush both sides with vinegar sauce and return to the grill for 15 minutes to glaze.
8. Cut the ribs into individual bones and serve.
