Description
The easiest way to smoke pork spare ribs for incredible flavor and texture.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 lbs pork spare ribs
- 1/3 cup yellow mustard
- 1/2 cup pork rub
- 1 can of beer
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup bbq sauce
Instructions
- Heat the smoker to 225°F or 107°C.
- Unwrap the ribs and pat dry. Optionally, trim and remove membrane. See instructions above.
- Apply a coat of mustard on all sides of the ribs. Apply pork rub over the mustard.
- Put ribs in the heated smoker, on the rack with the meatier side facing down for more smokey flavor.
- Smoke the ribs uncovered for three hours.
- Remove the ribs carefully and set them on top of a large piece of foil, meatier side facing up. The foil must be large enough to fold over and enclose the ribs. You may need multiple pieces.
- Sprinkle brown sugar over the ribs. Pour in the beer. Close up the foil tightly and put ribs back in the smoker. Smoke for 2 hours.
- Carefully remove ribs from the smoker. Open up the foil. Baste the ribs with bbq sauce and return to the smoker for 1 hour. You can keep them on the foil so they don’t fall apart — leave the foil open so it’s not covering the ribs.
- Remove from smoker and enjoy.
