St. Louis Threesome

[chilerelleno]

Three magnificent racks of St. Louis style pork ribs are going down for a low and slow rumba.
One rack done with mustard, the other two water and all hand rubbed with much care and attention.
I love rubbing my meat

Hey, I am going to try and smoke some St. Louis style ribs. Just to clarify for the beginner.
Cooking Method
You will smoke them with hickory at 250º for 2 hours
You will continue to cook at 250º but without the smoke.
At 3 hours you spray them with apple juice
At 4 hours you spray them with apple juice
At 5 hours you rap them in tinfoil
The last hour you take the tinfoil off and finish the cooking.

Thanks

This is ancient history, times and methods have changed.
I no longer cook my pork ribs in this manner.

I don't bother removing the membrane from the back of the bones.

I dry rub with my homemade pork rub.

Fire up the smoker to 225°-240° with Cherry for smoket, other woods work just fine too.

I use a water pan.

Low-n-slow for 6-6.5 hours until they pass the 'Pop, Bend and Crack Test'.

No turning, spritzing, wrapping, no glazing with sauce unless someone begs for it.

Rub, Smoke and Eat.

Yes, I read that. I was just making sure I interpreted your cooking method correctly. I am a beginner these will be my first ribs

Yes, I read that.

Read it again, I mistakenly quoted my original post and have edited it.

See my recipe index under pork for all my posted rib cooks.
