Cured Spare ribs w/oyster/honey/garlic sauce

[RickNessly]

Curious if anyone has tried cured spare ribs?...I've been experimenting a bit and cured these spares, rubbed w/ black pepper and coriander and then smoked them like I would normally smoke. For the last few hours or so, I added an oyster/honey/garlic sauce that I make for wings and sprinkled with sesame seeds.

Kind of a bit of mad scientist stuff....but, they turned out pretty good. Tender...like ham.

Wondering if anyone has done this...have any tips for how to best smoke them after curing...different from regular spare ribs.

I think I would skip the coriander and just use black pepper w/onion/garlic powder next time. No need for salt in the rub since the ribs are cured and salty.

I've cured them using pops brine. Basically smoked them like regular ribs. I used a brownsugar, ground cloves mixed with orange juice to make like a ham glaze.they came out good.

Bacon on a stick, yea it’s been a thing for a long time. A sugar based rub is usually best and cook them as normal.

I've not done them yet but know I've seen multiple threads on them. Sooner or later I'll try it. I do have a huge freezer load of ribs.

Like said above , a few post and how to on the site, and in the search area.

I have done them a few different ways and love them all. John Bearcarver was a big help as were others for me.

This is just 1 way I did them.
