Was diving the freezer and came across some Fresh Spare Ribs I'd stashed a while ago. Hmmmm.... including rib tips.
I'm a fan of rotisserie, but the rib tips don't work well with that method. Decided to dust off & fire up the stick burner.
The ribs were heavily rubbed with Oakridge Dominator and lightly dusted with Habanero Death Dust.
Cooker was running in the range of 275 - 300*. Used a mix of hickory & cherry for smoke.
I started this cook about 1 1/2 hours later than I should have & it was getting late.
Foiled the ribs with some #5 (because Rich loves that stuff & had to try it) at the 3 hour mark to speed things up.
Removed from the foil an hour later.
Squash is done. Copped Cliff's method for cooking them. It works well.
Ribs, cooked.
Time To Eat!
The ribs were real good. Wife loved them.
Not shown was the #5 I drizzled on the ribs.
I added a tsp of red pepper flakes and some healthy blasts of Yucatan Sunshine to it when I made it.
Came out moderately spicy. Not so hot that the wife wouldn't use it.
Total cook time was 4 1/2 hours, so dinner was late. But that happens all the time around here.
