At the 4.5 hour mark. No wrap cooking straight thru. Still a bit tough, gonna need some more time.


There's the picnic hiding below the ribs. Haven't probed it yet. I'll do that when I pull the ribs off.

Mini is chugging along at 255* probably going to need to add some new briquettes at some point and dump some ash.
 
Just caught back up with this. How did the ribs turn out Case? They looked like they were gonna be quite the treat

Thanks Clarissa. Well I went a bit higher than I wanted. My thinking was that the picnic would roll along at the 2 hour per pound rule. Wrong! My plan was to probe the picnic when I removed the ribs. The smoker chugged along for most the day right at 250º-260º. So when the ribs were done I probed the picnic. It was at 170º!! I had planned to take it to 160º!!! SO I pulled and foiled it and let it rest overnight (planned on slicing, which I did. So I think it ended up a bit dryer than I would have liked. It still is super tasty though. Along the lines of saltiness I did 1/2 cup salt per gallon and I think the 1/3 cup would be plenty. That is how much we use for the bacon and its just right for us. With that all said we will be having some great ham sandweees and two bones and scraps for beans once the weather cools!
