Rodney Scott's Spare Ribs image

Where there's smoke, there's mouthwatering barbecue-at least in the presence of a pro pitmaster like Rodney Scott. This stellar ribs recipe comes from his new book, Rodney Scott's World of BBQ, ($24.99, amazon.com).

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 slabs pork spare ribs, membranes removed
1 1/2 tablespoons Rib Rub
2 to 3 cups Rodney Scott's Sauce

Steps:

  • Fire up your grill to between 200°F and 250°F. Season each slab with rib rub. Make sure you get under the flap, the little piece of meat that dangles on the bone side of the ribs. Place seasoned ribs on grill grate, bone-sides down, with fatty ends toward middle of grill. (The middle of the grill tends to be hotter, so that will ensure that the thicker part of the rib gets cooked properly.)
  • Close the grill and cook: You are looking for caramelization on the ribs before you flip them; that should take about 1½ hours. Open the grill and look for caramelization on the bone.
  • If it's ready, use the mop-flip-mop method: Mop the visible side of the meat with sauce. Flip the meat over. Mop the meat again. Close the grill; bring it back up to temperature, between 200° to 250°. Cook until the second sides get that same caramelized look.
  • To check doneness, we pick up a slab of ribs with a pair of tongs and check how much give there is. When you pick the slab up, it should sag or flop easily. If a slight tear develops in the meat between the bones, that's another sign of doneness.

I've tried many different rib recipes, but this one is by far the best. The ribs are always fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce is incredible. I highly recommend this recipe!

The ribs were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper if you don't like spicy food.

Rodney Scott's Spare Ribs are a true delight! The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender and had a delicious smoky flavor. The sauce was also perfect, with just the right amount of sweetness and heat. I will definitely be making this recipe again!
