Chef Tom walks you through our process for trimming, seasoning, smoking and saucing competition style ribs. This is our recipe for every KCBS competition we cook (when we have time), and has done well for us landing us in the top 10 on more than one occasion.
Let’s smoke some sweet and spicy ribs. Chipotles give us extra smoky flavors and a bit of a bite with honey and brown sugar teaming up to smooth it out.
All Things Barbecue’s staff chef, Tom Jackson, shows you how to trim St. Louis Style Spare Ribs and walks you through the process of smoking, wrapping and saucing them. We smoked these ribs on a Yoder Smokers YS640 Pellet Smoker and used R Butts R Smokin’ Butt Kick’n Chicken and Ozark Heat rubs 50/50. We then sauced them with a 50/50 blend of a sweer BBQ sauce and Firebug Grill’n Sauce Hot.
