Tasso recipe?

I'm looking to make some red beans and rice next week. Does anyone have a recipe for tasso? I've seen recipes for it to be brined, and rubbed/smoked. Also, can you use country style ribs cut up?

If the ribs are from the butt it should be good, not sure about loin ribs, I'll leave that to others.
Rhulman has a good recipe using basic cure for four hrs, then smoke with a combination of white, red, black pepper and all spice.
Good stuff. -

Any idea why there is very little consistency from one recipe to the other? Is there a definition of Tasso, or is it "do something to pork; call it tasso"?Killen, AL (The Shoals)XL, Small, Minimax, and Mini BGEs

Maybe it is local customs and many different family recipes.
