Full Fledged Farker
Spares, start to finish in about 4 hours. I have tried cooking ribs hot a few times without spectacular results. I tried again this evening, this time wrapping them to keep them more moist. It worked, but I still prefer them smoked low and slow. At least I know now.
Light rub and on the kettle with with charcoal and cherry wood at 300.
90 minutes of smoke, then wrapped with butter, brown sugar, and cider.
1 Hour wrapped, unwrapped and brushed with sauce and back on at 300 for 30 minutes to set the sauce. Last, it was brushed with another coat of sauce and went over to the gasser on high for 5 minutes on each side to crisp up.
The result: lightly smoked, sweet, and sticky ribs. A little bite and chew, but not too tough. Pretty good, and I'd do it again for another weeknight dinner. My 4 year old approves and asked for seconds.
