    A Virgin No More

    Yesterday was my first time as well.  Had family over for the Super Bowl and broke in my MES 30" (after having seasoned it the day before of course).  Baby backs and I seasoned them with a typical rub (brown sugar, onion and garlic powder, chili powder, etc.).  Tried the 2-2-1 method at 225 and...
