Start by making the blueberry sauce with 1200 g of fresh blueberries, grinding them down in a blender until smooth.

Add 1 and 1/2 cup fine chopped onions, 1 and 1/2 cup fine chopped bell peppers, 1/2 cup honey, 1 fine chopped carrot, 2 tbsp ketchup, 2 tbsp dark brown sugar, and 1 fine chopped garlic to the blender.

Add 1 cup of vinegar to the mixture and let it come to a boil.

Let the sauce simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes.

Puree the sauce again until smooth and store it in sterilized bottles, cooling them upside down until ready to use.

Prepare the veal ribs by applying olive oil and removing the silver skin.

Apply a generous amount of Texas style rub on the ribs.

Set up the smoker to smoke at 110° C (225° F).

Smoke the ribs until fully cooked, which may take about 4 to 5 hours.

Check for doneness; the ribs should be tender and juicy with a nice pink color.
