Pit-style balance for a proper rack of spares
St. Louis-cut spare ribs are all about even, flat cooking, and this rub was built to match that with a balanced, pit-style profile rather than a one-note flavour. It suits the cook running a proper rack low and slow, and it nails the sweet-savoury balance with just a gentle edge of spice to keep things interesting.
The flavour
Front palate is a gentle sweetness, middle settles into savoury garlic and cracked pepper, finish carries a soft, warm spice that never overpowers the pork.
How to cook with it
- Trim the ribs St. Louis-style first, then coat evenly and let them rest for 30 minutes so the rub tacks onto the surface before smoking.
- Run the 3-2-1 method — smoke uncovered, wrap for moisture, then finish uncovered again to firm the bark this rub builds up.
- Toward the end of the cook, apply a light second dusting for extra crust before pulling the ribs off the smoker.
- Left-field use: work it into pork mince for house-made sausages with a proper pit-style backbone.
In the shaker
A shaker of medium-brown rub with fine, evenly distributed spice flecks; a fine-to-medium grind that clings well through a long, moisture-heavy 3-2-1 cook.
