  • I picked up 2 slabs of St Louis spare ribs at Costco.  They were already seasoned but I added mustard and additional seasoning.

    I smoked them without foil for 3 hours @ 240.  Then foiled with apple juice for 2 hours.  I removed the foil, sauced and smoked for another 30 minutes. 

    Lumberjack sweet wood blend mixed with hickory.

    They turned out great.  I usually smoke baby backs but I'm starting to like spares better.

  • When you foiled did you just us apple juice?  Did you add anything else?  They look great!

  • A few questions for ya:
    What were they originally seasoned with?
    What rub did you add?
    What was the outside temp?
    What type of smoker?

    Costco sells two packs of these ribs pre-seasoned.  I'm not exactly sure what the seasoning is but it's a little on the sweet side.  I just supplemented it with some salt, chili powder, garlic powder and black pepper.
    I think it was about 50F out?

  • Thanks. Seems like it was a simple cook. I wonder if Sam's has any similar ribs like those? Again, great cook!

  • I have never seen St. Louis style ribs at Sam's.  At Costco I buy the three packs that are unseasoned.

  • Nicely done!!! I love St Louis ribs.

  • I smoked two more of the same Costco spares today. The outside temp was 4.

    I basically followed the same cooking procedure and they turned out great again. Could have used a bit more smoke though.

  • I've seen those at Costco, but never paid much attention, since I assumed they were precooked as well.

  • They are just pre-seasoned. I like them because it’s only two racks instead of 3. Two is plenty for my family.
