I'm doing some slabs of SLS Ribs (St. Louis Style) but will only get the full spareribs (cheaper) and will cut the rib tips off. Wondering if anyone has some good ideas on how to cook these? I was thinking of a simple
-- Cut them into 2" or so "sections".
-- Put Jan's on them
-- Smoke 'em for 2-3 hours (while the "real" ribs are smoking)
-- Sauce 'em a bit
-- Serve them
That a decent game plan? Or should I sauce/grill them a bit after the smoke?
Cheers!

Here's a good guide How to makes ribs in a Bradley (http://forum.bradleysmoker.com/index.php?topic=10182.0)
Some of us will vary the temps. 3-2-.5 or 2-3-.5 or 2-2-.5 or a full 1 hour at the end. The longer you leave them at the end naked, the more they will stiffen up. Thats why I like to go .5 hour. or less :o
I use to cook spare ribs with very little trimming. Since I started trimming my spare ribs I have made Rib Tips a few times, now I use the tips in making McRib's.
Rib tips sometimes take longer then the St. Louis ribs, so you may want to cook them the same as you do ribs. The tips are considered the toughest part of the rack. I generally cook them in one piece, but cutting into 2" wide strips will work. I once cut them into about 1" cubes, and that was quite a failure.

Wow -- thanks for the heads up.. I think I'll try cutting them and then cook them as I do the main rack .. never figured they'd take as long but good to know! I'll post the results! :)
