Hey guys!
I've been reading a lot on here the past few months and figured it was time to join to learn more, and hopefully one day contribute.
I'm doing my second smoke ever this weekend my new Oklahoma Joe's Longhorn Combo (already eyeing up full horizontal offsets on Craigslist, don't tell the wife!).
I'm gonna grab 2 racks of spare ribs, trim St Louis style and start with the 3-2-1 method. Using Jeff's original rub & sauce recipes. My question is what's the best process to cook the rib tips?
I've had trouble finding a complete "recipe" for them but have seen people mention various ways.
Lay the full rib tips slab on the grate, rubbed the same as the ribs, and leave on for 4-5 hours?
Rub the tips the same as ribs and cut individually, then place on grate?
Foil them at any point?
Sauce them the last 30 mins on the grate or sooner in a pan like burnt ends?
I'm planning on eating half of the tips since I've never tried them before and using the other half in baked beans, but I've heard the horror stories about the rib tips never making it into the house, so we'll let destiny decide that
Any advice is much appreciated!
