How does Pappys BBQ make their ribs?
Pappy's BBQ is known for their St. Louis-style spare ribs, which are rubbed with a secret blend of spices, slow-smoked over hickory and cherry wood, and finished with a tangy sauce. To make their ribs, Pappy's starts by removing the membrane from the back of the ribs, then rubs them with their spice mix, which includes paprika, garlic powder, and brown sugar among other ingredients. The ribs are then slow-smoked over hickory and cherry wood, which imparts a smoky flavor and helps to tenderize the meat. Finally, the ribs are brushed with the sauce before serving.
