I really enjoy the bronto spares (4-5 lbs)from the neighborhood Walmart.

Cut off the tips and the flap, remove the membrane, rub liberally with CS rib rub, cut in half then into the 008 with 3oz of Hickory @ 250F for 6 1/2 to 7 hours - juicy and tender. Yummy. Just wish they weren't around 3,000 calories a slab Smiler

The question is what should I do with the rib tips once they have been removed? I thought about skewering them and putting them in the smoker too. Any ideas would be most appreciated.

I trim my ribs and put the trimmings in the smoker with the ribs. When finished, I chop them into small pieces and mix them in to my baked beans, which I always like to serve with my ribs. I make my beans from scratch, and these trimmings add good flavor and texture. Its just one more way I can seperate my fixin's from the stuff out of a can.
I like to preheat my favorite "loose" sauce (enough to cover the chopped tips) in the smoker in a deep pan. Once the tips are cooked I toss them in the sauce cover with foil and let them mello for half hour or so, still under heat.
Pull them off and pour over the rice of your choice.
Somebody get me a napkin!
Enjoy
