First rack of the year
My smoker fluctated between 230 and 260 during the cook. After about 3 hours I wrapped them in foil with dark brown sugar, butter, honey, apple slices with a dusting of cinnamon, and a splash of apple juice for about 2 hours. They were done after that. I took them back out of the foil and put on... -
First rack of the year
I Used Simply Marvelous cherry rub on the bb. I used Checkered Pig's rub on the spares. Mustard was applied as a tacking agent. Btw, Checkered Pig is a local (to me) team and restaurant that came in 4th last year in the overall KCBS national rankings! -
First rack of the year
LOL you got it! I used Smithfield spareribs that I trimmed down to SLC. I used Kingsford Competition briquettes with 2 chunks of apple and 1 chunk of cherry. I also did a rack of baby backs. Here's a pic of them still in the cryovac. I couldn't believe I was able to get the spares for $7.17!!! -

First rack of the year
Cooked on a WSM 18.5 and seasoned with Checkered Pig rub and sauce. Turned out quite well I think! -

Baby back ribs tough and rubbery
I agree with geerock about not foiling. I used to think that foiling was the only way to go for ribs. Don't get me wrong, it can and does produce great results. But I took some advice from other members on here when I was having the same problem you are. I didn't foil. Just used the bend... -

Having problems getting the right tenderness on SLC's
Very true! I guess that gives me an excellent reason to go buy more ribs! -
Having problems getting the right tenderness on SLC's
finished my baby back rack with no foil....did the toothpick and bend test. Great texture and perfect doneness. They sliced like a dream! -

Having problems getting the right tenderness on SLC's
Thanks everyone! I'm trying a rack of loin backs today without foiling. I'm going to cook them 4-5 hours and then start trying the "bend test" that people have suggested. I've heard some people say they love the texture without the foil, so I hope I do as well! Can't wait to try 'em! -

New WSM Owner, Just Joined the Forum
Congrats on the WSM! I recently got the 18.5...wish I had sprung for the 22.5! I haven't been smoking too long, but I do know that the WSM's are a remarkable product! They are used in competition bbq and maintain a very consistent heat when used properly. To maintain an even more consistent...
