Buffalo Trace Spare Ribs

You simply cannot go wrong with this Classic Spare Ribs recipe. Weber's Buffalo Trace Seasoning has a sweet, whiskey flavor. We promise they will be worth all of the time it takes to make them!

Ingredients

  • 3 lbs Pork spare ribs, about 1 rack
  • 6 tbsp Weber® Buffalo Trace Seasoning
  • 1 cup Apple juice
  • 2 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
  • 1 cup Weber® Sweet & Thick Original BBQ Sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat grill to 300 degrees. Spare ribs cook low and slow, so be sure to keep your temperature low throughout cooking.
  • Line a large pan with foil (or using a foil pan). Pat ribs dry with paper towel and rub Weber® Buffalo Trace Seasoning onto both sides, pressing it firmly into the ribs.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight.
  • Pour apple juice and apple cider vinegar into the bottom of the pan and place ribs in. Cover with foil and grill for 2 hours, or until meat begins falling off the bone.
  • Be sure your grill grates have been cleaned from any residue. Remove ribs from pan onto a platter and drain the liquid, reserving 1 cup.
  • Transfer 1 cup liquid from bottom of cooking pan to a small pot. Turn the heat up to high and boil until mixture is reduced by half. Whisk in Weber® Sweet & Thick Original BBQ Sauce.
  • Turn grill up to medium-high heat. Put the ribs directly on the grill and cook 5 minutes per side, or until browned and slightly charred.
  • Remove from grill and allow to rest 5 minutes. Brush each side with the bbq sauce mixture. Serve hot with additional Weber® Sweet & Thick Original BBQ Sauce.
