Okay, FAY HAS FINALLY LEFT OUR HOME AND FINALLY I CAN GET OUT AND COOK AGAIN! Tonight is is SPARE RIBS!

This is a Spare Rib three (3) step cook 3-1-WD (When ever they are Done) based on 4 half-slabs using a modified Kansas City style (no honey and all indirect)



Ingredients
2 Slabs – Spare Ribs
Bad Byron’s Butt Rub
Brown Sugar
Barbeque Sauce (pick a favorite)
EVOO (optional)
100% Apple Juice

Preparation
a. Fire up BGE and Pre-Heat to 250 degrees, Insert Plate setter, drip pan, grate and rib rack
b. Stabilize temperature while you prepare the ribs



First Cook (3 hours)
a. Cut slabs in half and remove membrane using a paper towel
b. Drizzle on some extra virgin olive oil and rub (optional)
c. Sprinkle on Bad Byron’s Butt Rub (to taste) and press into ribs d. Add ribs to rib rack and close lid and Cook at 250 degrees for 3 hours; remove from Rack to rest



Steeping (1 hour)
a. Tear off 4 pieces of foil large enough to wrap the half slabs and stack.
b. Sprinkle brown sugar equal to length of rib
c. Form a basket with the first piece of foil
d. Drizzle about a half cup of Apple Juice onto the rib and wrap it lightly like a package and set aside for next round of cooking

Final Barbeque (WD = Whenever the are Done!) - Place Ribs directly on Grate and smother with Barbeque sauce, Flip and repeat the cook 15 minutes and repeat, cooking time can vary considerably; many recipes call for at least an hour. Let rest and serve.
