    Getting started on the 4th

    Spare ribs with membrane removed


    Rubbed down and going back in fridge


    Chicken rub. That is a wood screw bottle. Makes a great rub shaker

    And the first rub on chicken thighs

    Makes them more tender and also keeps the rub from getting to the backside of the rib

    I always pull that skin off. It’s tough. Pretty easy to do with your fingers but I have a pair of ‘catfish skinning’ pliers that work perfectly for it. (I never used them on cats and I don’t know why it’s a pair since I only have one.)

    If you use grated parmesan cheese, those old bottles work well for rubs also.

    The ribs are at the color I like so I took them off. Notice I said color, not temp. They aren't done yet


    Net I lay down brown sugar an honey


    They place the rib on that and add butter and a touch more peach rub and double wrap it closed

    Now for the chicken thighs. They were right on the money


    Applied the sauce and now put back in smoker for 20 minutes to set the sauce.


    And everything back in to finish

    Glad you mentioned that as I have one I was about to throw out. Looks like it has a new life awaiting it.

    They stayed on about an hour to get some smoke and drippings from the ribs
