I found an interesting sauce about a month ago at a local Amish store, and when I read the label, I instantly thought of pork spare ribs, so that is what I decided to do on this Memorial Day weekend. I cooked 3 racks of St. Louis style pork spare ribs on the Kamado Joe, and sauced them with this delicious Candied Jalapeño bbq sauce, and they were just simply amazing! Below you will find the recipe to the rub that I used on this cook, and if your interested in the sauce, just Google the name. I found 3 places that ship it, but I'm sure there are more. Just did a quick search, because I knew people would be asking me where they can buy it.
