Memphis-Style Barbecued Pork Ribs

Ingredients for Memphis-Style Barbecued Pork Ribs

• Four 1.4kg slabs pork spare ribs (also called St. Louis-style ribs), untrimmed

• Kosher salt

• 475ml Neely's Barbecue Seasoning , plus more, as desired

• 950ml Neely's Barbecue Sauce

Rinse the rib slabs in cold water, and pat dry with paper towels. Place the slabs on a clean chopping board. Using your fingers, pull off the thick white membrane. Use a small knife to trim off the excess fat and meat. Using a sharp knife, trim off the brisket bone. Season both sides of the slab with salt and Neely's Barbecue Seasoning, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to a day in advance.

When you're ready to cook the ribs, preheat the grill to 121°C, preferably using a combination of hickory wood and charcoal. Place the slab on the grill away from (not directly over) the flame (using indirect heat). Cook the slab curl-side up for approximately 2 1/2 hours. Flip the slab over to finish the cooking, about 1 more hour, or until you get the full "bend" in the slab (see Tony's Tip).

For dry ribs, pull the ribs off the grill, and sprinkle more Neely's Barbecue Seasoning over the entire slab. Cut between the bones and serve. For wet ribs, pull the ribs off the grill, and pour Neely's Barbecue Sauce over the slab. Slice between the bones into individual portions, and serve.
