I have have been cooking baby back ribs since I started with the WSM cooker about a year ago. I want to move on a bit and try spare ribs.
I have sucessfully used Dr BBQ's (Ray Lampe) Championship Ribs recipe from his book (pg 89) for the BB ribs, but kept the pit temp at about 225.
His recipe for spares sets the pit temp at 275 degrees. The ribs are cooked for 2 hours meat side up for 2 hours then are flipped for another hour. He then foils the ribs for another 1 1/2 hours. After un-foiling, her raises the pit temp to 350, applies a glaze and flips several time for about 20 minutes. Total cooking time is about 5 hours.
I have a new BBQ Guru with the 10 CFM fan, so it would be very easy for me uses his temerature recommendations.
My question is -- has anyone tried Ray's recipe or have they cooked spares at 275 degrees for about 5 hours with good results.
