Well after reading the 2-2-1 I recalculated to 3-1-1
I used two different store purchased rubs (I am a newbie and wanted to play it a little safer)

I split one rack of ribs (First time Jitters) and smoked using 3-1-1 when done this is the result.

here they area cut away



The Meat pulled away from the bone nicely and the Taste was GREAT I love Ribs. The Sweet Mesquite by kirkland was odly enough the better taste no BBQ Sauce Needed.
For a first time at Baby Back Ribs it was a good one.
 
I like that Grill Mates rub also. I will use that on some ribs and add brown sugar. Comes out good. Would like to try that Kirkland rub. Bet that is good.
 
Ribs look great! I'll bet you wish you'd put on a couple more racks.

Man those are some really meaty baby backs you have there. You did a great job on smoking them too.

for the first set of ribs on here.
 
Nice job!!

I might have to give the Kirkland a try one day... I'm only using a very basic rub recipe anyways that I don't plan on tinkering with.

Are those ribs from Costco as well? Very meaty!
 
You gotta love Costco - next time there I'll search for their rub. The baby backs they sell come 3 to a pack and are already trimmed and the silver skin is removed. A real time saver. I, two, am a big fan of the McCormicks rubs.
 
Thanks All... I am so glad I found this place the information saved these things. I am going to make a few racks Saturday for friends who just adopted a Boy from Jamaica... Hope they like em like I did...
 
Congrats on the great looking first ribs. I am doing my first tomorrow. I have the Costco rubs but prefer Billy Bones rubs. Will try both tomorrow,
