Ok, so as you guys have probably seen, I smoke pork spare ribs alot, and I always to them St Louis style (i.e. I've trimmed the flap and tips off). I like the way it looks and the eveness of the cooking. I'm going into a competition in October where they are requiring Spare Ribs (not St Louis style).
So here's my question: Can I just clean the fat up off a cryo-vacced rack of pork spare ribs, leaving the flap and rib tips on, and smoke them that way? Or do I still need to do some additional trimming (rib tip side, flap, layers, etc...)?
Gimme your expert opinions cause I know you guys (and gals) have them!! Thanks! Thumbs Up
