Tender Spareribs?

Oakley · July 03, 2005, 05:28:52 PM

I just got my BS....Wahooo!!! I'm so excited. My question for you "seasoned" smokers is this.... Can anyone give me a recipe for tender pork spareribs?[:X]

I would really appreciate your help.

Once your pork is done to the level you want then FTC them for at least one hour. I would not smoke for more that 4 hours... allowing them to finish in the Bradley... maximum temp I would use is 220F--generally I'm closer to 190 F. (Ya it takes longer.)

FTC:

Foil....wrap in Foil
Towel... wrap in Towel
Cooler... place in pre-heated Cooler. (Use hot water to pre-heat the cooler.)

Add some apple juice to the ribs before wrapping.

Here is a rub or two or three to try out:
1. From Bassman

2. From Bassman

3. From tsquared

EDIT: BTW Welcome to the Bradley family~~!

Welcome to the Forum, Deborah! Make sure you share your experiences with us. Lots of forum members make their own rubs, and Olds has suggested some great homemade rubs. However, if you're lazy like me, see Big Smokers website: bbqguru.com

He's got lots of great rubs to try for all kinds of meat. I've used most of them and haven't been disappointed yet!

Thanks everyone for the advice. I really appreciate the rub recipes Oldman. I tried smoking a butt and it really turned out great for my first attempt. It did not even need sauce!!

This Bradley Smoker is the ticket!

Hey Chez Bubba.....I'm glad you like my sunglasses...I like your pucks! I bought some from you and they work great.

Ok...I'm off to cook these ribs...Wish me luck!
