For an even deeper smoky flavor, consider using a combination of hickory and applewood chips. If you don't have a smoker, you can also cook these ribs in a slow oven (225°F) for a similar effect, although the smoky flavor will be less intense. Consider adding a few drops of liquid smoke to the spice rub. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your liking to control the level of heat.
