Sounds really good! All I can think of I'd jalapeño jelly, which would work well as a glaze. Oh the possibilities!
 
How you get them bees to eat the Jalapeno nectar?  I'll bet deys some snarkey bees.

Just had to comment, on my way out to a beekeeping class.
 
Here is what I use for jalopeno honey.  I'd be interested to see what recipie is used for this thread:
  • 2 jalapenos
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
In a blender or food processor, combine jalapenos, honey, cilantro, and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and black pepper and puree until smooth. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of water to the mixture until desired consistency is achieved.

I got it from the Food Network and have adapted it a bit to my taste (added more peppers).

I make my own rubs for stake and some for ribs,butts, and brisket. But the ones I depend on most are one called Grub Rub that I can only get in Texas, or on line. I use it as a base on everything including stakes, burgers. salads, vegies, and everything I smoke. Fortunately the next door neighbors have kids attending Baylor university who keep me supplied for half the cost of on line.    The other rub  is called Rub It and I can only get it in Isanti Minnesota which is 50 miles from where I live. These are the two I use on my ribs (spare ribs trimmed to a ST Louis cut). I also make my own sauce which are good but I have discovered nothing that beats Kansas city stile smoky Bull's Eye sauce. My ribs go striate from the smoker to a 500 degree grill where I slather them on both sides turning them and basting them twice for one min.  on each side each time I turn them so that I don't burn the sauce. The meat is firm when done and easily pulls clean off the bone. Fall off the bone is over done and tends to get stringy, under done will leave bits of meat stuck to the bone. I smoke at 225 on the WSM for 5 hours or until the meat starts to shrink away from the bone at the ends. I test them by bending and or twisting a bone to see if it breaks loose from the meat, when it does it's done.
