These ribs are made to steal the show. Each bone is cut and smoked until tender, then glazed in a sticky, sweet, and spicy sauce that clings to every bite. Using SRF Kurobuta takes this recipe to the next level - they are juicy, flavorful, and just WOW! A quick finish on the pit caramelizes the glaze and adds just the right amount of char. They’re easy to eat, packed with bold flavor, and guaranteed to disappear fast. Whether you're throwing a backyard bash or just treating yourself, these party ribs are all about big flavor and good times.
Ingredients
-
2 racks of Kurobuta Spare Ribs
-
SRF Perfect Pork Rub or your favorite pork rub
-
2 to 4 teaspoons Chili Crisp or to taste
-
¼ cup honey
-
2 cups of Tuffy Stone Original BBQ Sauce or your favorite BBQ sauce
Directions
Cut Spare Ribs into individual bones and then season with the SRF Perfect Pork rub or your favorite. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour. When you are ready to cook, heat the smoker to 275ºF. Alternatively, heat the grill to 275ºF, using the two zone setup, with 5 to 6 chunks of your favorite wood, in addition to the charcoal or gas.
Place the pork ribs in the smoker or on the closed cool side of the two zone grill. Close the lid, and cook for 1 hour. Spritz ribs with a high quality apple juice and continue to smoke until tender, spritzing very 30 minutes.
The ribs will take 3 to 4 hours to get tender. While the ribs are cooking, mix the BBQ sauce, honey, and chili crisp, and reserve until ready to use. The chili crisp is spicy, so add to your preference. Once the ribs are tender, coat them with the sauce mixture using a brush or tossing in a mixing bowl. Return to the smoke and cook for another 5 minutes. Serve with additional sauce on the side.
