So, how often should you spritz ribs? Start with every 45 minutes after hour two, then adjust based on what you see. If the bark looks like it’s cracking in the desert, spritz. If it’s glossy and tacky, let it ride. Aim for three to four spritzes total during a typical 5-6 hour cook.
And remember, the most important ingredient is patience. Spritzing is just a tool, not a magic wand. The real magic happens when you stop overthinking and start enjoying the process. So, go ahead, spritz with confidence, and don’t forget to take a bite before you share. You earned it.
