spare ribs

This year for Smoke Day I had big plans... but laziness/business got the best of me and I ended up pulling 2 racks of spare ribs from the freezer for Memorial Day Dinner. Did a simple SPOG rub augmented with a little chili power, paprika, and a hot sauce binder. After a few hours on WSM...

I got a request from my wife and daughter-in-law for ribs for Mothers' day, so this past weekend, I made up a double batch of St-Louis cut pork spare ribs using a recipe I first made in my first smoker, a "Mr Meat Smoker", called "Chinese Smokey Ribs". The recipe was listed in the little...

I'm really starting like this method that I have been cooking spare ribs latey, especially if you want ribs after work and don't want to spend hrs cooking them. This is 4th time I've done spare ribs this way. Really simple. Just throw them on the Weber Grill, set the timer for 1 hr, then foil...

Just threw some spare ribs on the grill for a couple of hrs using apple wood. Hope everybody is staying cool and having a great weekend :). IMG_0817 by flyboymlc, on Flickr IMG_0824 by flyboymlc, on Flickr IMG_0825 by flyboymlc, on Flickr IMG_0826 by flyboymlc, on Flickr

I found a small rack but very meaty spare ribs at the store today. Threw them on the Weber using Apple wood for smoke. After an hr, wrapped them in heavy duty foil. I check an hr later, they were done. 2hrs total time to cook. They were moist and chewy. Great tasting ribs. Here are the photos...

Yes, 2 hr spare ribs. I was completely surprised that these ribs cooked so quickly. I used chunks of Hickory wood for the smoke. I checked an hr later, the ribs started to look a bit dark in some parts, wrapped them in foil with and drizzled some coke zero over them. I checked them again an hr...

Bought some nice meaty spare ribs on sale, cut them in half, threw them on the 14.5" smoker using a mix of hickory and apple wood. Took about 4 1/2 - 5 hrs, and they were done. Little smoker runs rock solid and steady. I was happy with the results. Hope everybody is trying to stay cool. Here are...

I threw a whole rack of Farmer Johns spare ribs on sale for $1.77 lb. Great deal! I had to cut it up in sections to fit on my Mini Me Smoker. I used hickory wood and water in the pan. I smoked the ribs for 3 hrs, then foiled for 2hrs, then out of the foil for about 10 minutes with some BBQ...

I was pressed for time, so high heat spare ribs! I kept flipping the ribs every 5 minutes or so, directly over the coals, then drizzle some bbq sauce at the last minute. The ribs were moist, chewy with great flavor! Here are the pics. spare ribs on sale. Ribs on. they look done now...

I was pressed for time, so instead of using my WSM for ribs, I grilled them direct. I flipped them about every 5 minutes or so, for the entire cook. It took about an hr and half for the ribs to be done. They were moist, tender, and had some chew, and using charcoal only, got a nice smoke ring. I...

Smoked S&P (and cumin) Spare Ribs This summer seems to be the season of spare ribs for us. I have been smoking lots of racks this year. My wife, always there with her thoughts, has let me know that she likes tightly trimmed St. Louis racks. She does not want to deal with any cartilage...

Hi Everybody, I hope you are all enjoying Labor Day weekend! I was pressed for time tonight, so I grilled spare ribs instead of smoking them. They were on sale at $1.77lb, it was a nice meaty rack. Grilled them direct and flipped them over about every 5 minutes or so. I added some Spicy bbq...

Our local grocery chain, Stators, has spare ribs on sale for $1.49 lb for Father's day weekend. Decided to get on early start on weekend grilling! Threw on some Memphis rub, first time trying it. I actually liked the flavor of the rub. Grilled the ribs directly, flipping them over and over...

This was my first go around with hanging ribs straight over the coals in my WSM modified pit barrel cooker. My equipment consist of a 22.5 WSM with a BBQ Guru 10 CFM fan, Craycort grill, and the Cajun Bandit Stacker and if needed the Cajun Bandit Rotisserie Ring. I saw the PBC on Youtube and was...

Hi all, it's been awhile since I last posted one of my BBQ cooks, I finally broke out my WSM and did some spare ribs. They were very meaty, and on sale. I did the 3-2-1 method. I used Hickory and Apple wood chunks. Water in pan. Smoker held rock steady at 250F with all vents open. I sprayed with...

I just made the best ribs I've made so far, and I brined them. I used the same rub I always do (with salt) and the ribs came out awesome--not overly salty at all. The ribs were a little richer than usual, but in a good way and that just made the ribs go farther (most people had 2-3 ribs instead...

Hello Folks, I smoked 1slab using 3+1+1 method. This the photo telling. I trimmed the slab and w/o any glue I used 2 layers dry rub IMG_5448 di BBQness, su Flickr IMG_5449 di BBQness, su Flickr I set up the 22.5 WSM with tin can M.M w/some water (1/2 gal) just enough for the first smoking...

Don't get me wrong...I do very much appreciate a good BBQ sauce, but truth be told, I actually prefer eating my ribs "dry". I seasoned a couple racks of St Louis cut spares using Saveur magazine's version of the dry rub (link to recipe here) used at Rendezvous in Memphis. I cooked them on the...

Used some oil and Uncle Bob's Rib Rub on some St Louis cut spare ribs Fired up the 14.5" with lump and peach wood from my peach tree Enjoyed a few homebrew Belgian Wit beers (think Shock Top Belgium White or Blue Moon - but with a kick) A little fuzzy after so many homebrews :)...

Waiting impatiently for my 22.5 WSM and gotta cook something. It is -16c or 3f right now but I care not. Side ribs with membrane removed....I pay 1.99 a pound for whole side ribs....this is a st louis cut and a chine bone cut: In my rub I am using something I picked up over Xmas: That is...
