Picked up three racks of spares and trimmed out to St Louis style. Here are the racks and the trimmed out parts. Might cut up some of the trimmings and throw in a pan of beans a bit later.
Enjoy! They will be delicious. Spareribs are my go-to rib now......the last few batches of spares that have gone through the smoker have been much better than any of the BB's that I've smoked (and I've done a lot of them).....not sure why. Maybe it's easier to smoke the spareribs evenly throughout.....or maybe the fat content is a little more in line with what works better in my WSM.
Well they turned out pretty damn good. The racks were just the way I like them with a little tug off the bone. The flap meat was great in the beans and the tips were melt in your mouth tender. I don't know if I will wrap ribs any more or not.
Looking good!!! Something to try next time is save the dripping, chill and skim fat off the top and use the drippings in next batch of beans, I do it all the time when I smoke a pork butt and make some black beans, don't add any salt to the beans until you've tasted them after adding the drippings, made that mistake once
