Ingredients
- 3 pounds (1.4 kg) pork spareribs
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon (1.5 g) Splenda
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) spicy mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) olive oil
Method
- Wood chips or chunks, soaked for at least 30 minutes
- Combine everything but the ribs and the oil
- Put the ribs in a large resealable plastic bag
- Reserve some of the vinegar mixture for basting, pour the rest over it, and seal the bag, pressing out the air as you go
- Turn the bag a couple of times to make sure the whole surface of the meat comes in contact with the marinade
- Throw the ribs in the fridge and let them marinate all day or even overnight, turning now and then when you open the fridge anyway and think of it
- Six hours before dinner, get a fire going for indirect smoking (pile all the coals on one side or turn on only half the burners on a gas grill) and add the wood chips or chunks
- When the fire is ready, mix the reserved marinade and the oil- this is your mopping sauce
- Drain and throw the ribs on the grill and smoke them for 5 to 6 hours or until quite tender, basting every 30 to 45 minutes (or when you add more chips or chunks to the fire, as the smoke dies down) with the mop sauce
- Use a clean utensil each time you baste
