i'm doing four slabs of spare ribs on my SnP this weekend and i am thinking of kissing them with the florida keys. suggestions and advice would be appreciated, but here is what i am thinking -
i'll use a more-or-less standard rub (unless anyone has ideas for this - add red pepper flakes or lemon pepper, perhaps?).
for a mop i will vary my normal dr. pepper/soy sauce/olive oil formula by using a combination of orange juice (or orange juice and 7-up) and teriyaki sauce with a little olive oil and of course a quarter- or a half-cup of dark rum.
for a finishing glaze (not sauce), i will vary my normal mustard/brown sugar/apple cider vinegar glaze by using pineapple juice instead of vinegar. as i said, this is a glaze and will go on a few minutes before the ribs are done and then set to provide a nice, mostly-dry shine and crackle with a little bit of subtle flavor as well.
if anyone has suggestions for substitutions or additions, please feel free to chime in!
thanks!
