Smoked Spare Ribs – BBQ Ribs Recipe – Weber Kettle Grill




This video recipe The Wolfe Pit shows you how to trim spare ribs down to St. Louis-style cut ribs. Then how to BBQ the trimmed ribs on a Weber grill with hardwood charcoal and apple wood. The ribs are smoked to perfection and then glazed with a BBQ sauce made with Apricot preserve and sriracha sauce for a sweet heat flavor on the perfectly, tender and juicy ribs!

    Are you closing the flue or oxygen exchange entirely when smoking? You checking them often or just leaving them sit for an hour at a time? Flipping them? Concerned at all with the side closer to the fire cooking faster? Do I have to be concerned with the thicker parts of the ribs not cooking through? Thanks for the vid, appreciate it.

    Those look delicious. I'm going to try that glaze. They had buy 1 pack of spareribs and get 3 free at the grocery store, so I have tons of ribs. Make two packs on Super Bowl Sunday. Put a good amount of Weber rub, let them sit for several hours, put them in foil and cooked for 3 hours on the Weber. Last hour put some sauce on them and took them out of the foil. Came out about perfect

    When you stack your charcoal in, are you just using the indirect method over say the snake method? My first try at ribs this past summer turned out to be a disaster, lol. Used baby backs, and had my fire up way too high. What temp are you shooting for to cook slow and low on these?

    Wow, that looked really, really GREAT, Wolfe!

    Thanks for another great upload! I'm going to have to try lighting my charcoals the way you do. I use the fluid on Kingsford coals ("NOW will you try the Kingsford, Harry?")

    Old habits die hard, I guess *lol*

    Anyway, your meal came out superbly! Nice presentation at the end, too 🙂

    All best and thumbs up, Jersey Joe 🙂

    Do you get a bad flavor from the unlit charcoal? The beads we have in Aussieland you need to get them started first. I would love to try this but am not sure if it will be any good? Is there a difference between your fuels and ours? Please help. Thanks
