Smoked Spare Ribs

I was thinking about ribs. Being from the south we smoke a lot of meats around here. I have a great recipe for ribs. You can smoke em on a smoker or cook them in the oven.  Or better yet- call Christian and bribe him to smoke ya some!
1-2 rack Spare ribs or baby back rinsed (we like spare cause they have more meat) or even a pork roast or country style (boneless) pork ribs are awesome this way!
Rub (mix all together):
1 cup brown sugar
1 tbs lemon pepper
1 tbs garlic powder
1/2 tbs sea salt (redmonds dirt lookin kind)
1/2 tbs onion powder
1 tsp celery salt
2 tsp tony chachere's creole seasoning
cover with yellow mustard
sprinkle with 1 tbs liquid smoke. (by the ketchup on top shelf in walmart)
put Rub all over ribs. You want to coat it good. garnish with onions and/or celery. use roasting pan or cookie sheet covered in tin foil or wrap tightly in foil so no steam can escape. place on cookie sheet and bake on 250 degrees for 4 to 5 hours. These are fall off the bone yummy!
