Inspired by u/wardenstark8 I chopped up three racks and dry rubbed with my standard bbq chicken/wing seasonings, got them on the Weber at 400 with plenty of applewood smoke from a good hunk off the old tree and we devoured them under two hours later. Excellent. We enjoy a chewier rib with plenty of bark and these were perfect. The boys crushed that stack of ribs with only a few of the scrawnier ones leftover by morning – teen athletes will do that y'know.
For the curious – my rib rub is standard with an eye on quality of spices from a spice purveyor at Cleveland's West Side Market. Her hot-smoked paprika is my go-to for darn near anything. I also us some chipotle powder, ground cumin, and the usual garlic and onion powder with the brown sugar. Fresh spices are so important.
Thanks again Wardenstark, great inspo and certainly going into rotation for those days when they're clamoring for ribs!
