Greetings,

So I took a stab at trimming some full spares down to St. Louis cut ribs.

Next time I'll be neater with the cut, but they're not for competition. These have plenty or meat on them.

I applied a coating of the new Simply Marvelous Sweet Seduction and wrapped 'em for the fridge to sit overnight

I popped 'em on the Weber over charcoal and some apple chunks. I put some of the trimmings on as well.

90 minutes in (I moved the cut pieces in the rack with the ribs)

two hours in (I foiled 'em at 2 1/2 hours). I sprayed them at every check with a combination of apple juice, orange juice, and a little honey,

Here they are foiled for 90 minutes. I only have the el cheopo thermometer, but hope Santa brings me a Maverick! The temperature remained constant around 250F. I rested them in my super-cooler for an hour. They were steaming hot when they were removed.

In general, these were very good. Personally, I did not use ANY sauce and the folks who ate them used very little. Win! I want to get more trimming practice. Thanks to all of the Brethren who have offered suggestions. As always, I welcome more! Thanks for looking.

it sure looks like you did a great job from here. nice smoke ring and nice color.
 
Nice job. I've got to to try trimming sometime. My butcher has been doing that for me - even removes the membrane!
 
I love cooking ribs on my kettle, it keeps you just busy enough to make it interesting. Nice job.
 
The first time trimming can be interesting :-D The ribs look like they came out good.

The easiest way I can describe the way to trim spares is to make sure that the rack is straight, and then find the longest bone and trim straight across the rack at the tip of that bone. You should end up with a nice square rack.
 
Very nice - the triming gets easier the more you do it.
 
Great looking ribs! Had some babybacks with SMSS today too and my kids loved them!
 
You did a fine job
Have to get some SMSS
