2nd time I have smoked spare ribs on the 590.
Applied Kosher Salt 2 hrs the Dizzy Pig Dizzy Dust salt free rub.

225 for 4 hours. 250 for final stretch. Wrapped in Butcher Paper with smoked pork lard for 30 minutes the glazed with Bone Suckin Sauce.

Looks like good smoke and I like that sauce too. Were they tender? Can't see bone pull-back in the pix.
 
I did spares on Saturday, almost no pull back on those either, no idea why but they were at least as good as any I've made. Cooked to tender 5.5 hrs @ 240. Might have to do with the amount of fat in a given rack.
 
I did a rack of spares and a rack of BB yesterday, still did the 3-2-1, they were awesome. I really, really want to just cook naked, but afraid.....get it.....

Pull back is not a sign of doneness nor is temperature. In fact too much pull back is an indicator that the ribs are overcooked. Probe for tenderness using a toothpick or a meat probe. Amazingribs.com is a good site to check out the science of smoking ribs. Spritzing ribs is another myth. It does nothing to keep the ribs moist. It is the internal fat that keeps the ribs moist and adds flavor. You want bark to form on the ribs.
