Ok, here we go. I really love my spare ribs! I prefer them to baby backs. In my opinion the extra fat and meat make them more delicious and if you do them right they can be just as tender! I like to do a dry rub then smoke them with grape. I like to wash them down with a good German wheat beer like Franziskaner. What is your preference, how do you cook them and what do you like as an companion beverage?
 
Low and slow is the key with spares. You definitely have to remember to take the membrane off! I cut mine St Louis style and use the trimming to make stock which I add to my beans![emoji]128521[/emoji]
