    Masterbuilt smoker vent position?

    Ihave a MES 40 and smoke baby back ribs all the time. I use the 2-2-1 method. I leave the vent half open all the time i have smoke on the ribs; close it for the non-smoke part. They come out great! I use captain morgain's spiced rum and apple juice for the foiled part!

    Thanks sumosmoke! We are all big hockey fans are doing this for the 7th game and are also Penguin fans - now that the Bruins are out! My friend said that there are 2 racks in the smoker. Which one should we use? Do I wrap the foil completely around the wood and close it?
