Greetings all! Two days in a row with the Weber Kettle. Yesterday I posted the Boston Butt smoke. Today the Spare rib smoke. Another fun and simple smoking with the kettle. I trimmed the spares down to Saint Louis style pulled the membrane and vac packed the rib tips for another day. No binder then dusted lightly with Killer Hogs A.P seasoning. Then heavy with my favorite rub, Killer Hogs The BBQ Rub. Let the rack sit and sweat for about 30 minutes while I got the kettle ready. I used my charcoal fire method with cherry chunks. The total smoke time was 5 hours on the dot. Rolled the smoke and maintained 250 to 270 throughout the cook. Spritz with apple juice twice. No wrapping and no probing for internal temps. They are ready when you slide the tongs about halfway down the rack, lift up and they try to slightly break in the middle. Works every time. Was happy with the bark, smoke ring, flavor and juiciness. All in all another good one. Take care and keep on smokin!!

It's the end of the summer and I'm basically ribbed out, but boy oh boy do those ribs have me wanting to do another rack.

Point for sure

Those look great. So glad I am doing ribs tomorrow. I haven't had ribs for weeks (2 that is :emoji_laughing: ) and I am getting withdrawal.

Love the Killer Hogs rub. Really gives ribs a great color and tastes great.

That knife is special to me. I am 63. My grandmother who passed away at 97 was given this knife by her father (my great grandfather) when she was a young women. Mamaw gave the knife to me when I was about 30. She always told me it was her dad's Hawg Killin knife. HAHAHA. It's razor sharp and requires very little maintenance.
