Directions
Share
Ingredients :
½ cup light brown sugar
½ cup kosher salt
¼ cup paprika
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
2 racks Smithfield® Extra Tender St. Louis Pork Spareribs
membrane removed
1 cup Handful hickory or apple wood chips for smoking
soaked in water and drained
2 cups your favorite barbecue sauce
Methods :
About 1 hour before smoking, make the dry rub. Combine all rub ingredients in small bowl; mix well. Generously coat both sides of ribs with rub. Set aside at room temperature for 1 hour.
Heat charcoal or gas grill for indirect cooking at 275 degrees F. Add drained wood chips, if using.
Place the ribs, meaty side up, over a drip pan and cook for 2 hours. Add about 12 coals to a charcoal grill every 45 minutes or so to maintain the heat.
Remove ribs from grill. Double-wrap each rack in heavy-duty aluminum foil. Return wrapped ribs to the grill and cook for 2 hours more over indirect heat, until very tender. Add more coals as needed to maintain temperature for a charcoal grill.
Remove ribs from grill and unwrap. Place ribs over direct heat on grill and brush with barbecue sauce. Cook for about 5 minutes until the sauce is set. Turn ribs and repeat with more sauce.
