Ingredients
- 4 Pounds Pork Spare Ribs, riblet sections
- ½ Cup BBQ Rub
- ½ Cup BBQ sauce
Instructions
- Season both sides of the riblet sections liberally with your favorite BBQ rub. Chicago style ribs are typically savory and smoky as opposed to sweet.
- Preheat your smoker to 225 degrees.
- Cook the riblets, bone side down, for about 2-2.5 hours or until the internal temp of the ribs is about 190-195 degrees. The meat should be beginning to pull back from the ends of the bones.
- Sauce the top of the riblets and cook for another 30 minutes to set the sauce.
- Remove the riblets to a cutting board and cut into individual bite sized ribs. Serve warm with additional sauce.
