Prepped for tomorrow with QVIEW

[timetosmoke]

Prepped my spare ribs today for a day of smoking tomorrow.

After trimming the skirt and removing that membrane I did a light rub down with olive oil then liberally coated the ribs with my custom (an adjusted) rub. After getting all 4 slabs rubbed down and wrapped up to help the ribs soak up some rub flavor over night.

Here are some pics (finished product tomorrow)
