    Well I put a thermometer inside my smoker and it read 30* higher than my temp gauge screwed into the top of my smoker.  So instead of cooking at 225 I was cooking at 255.  This may explain my problem.  I'll try some more ribs this weekend and see.

    It is a single rack.  No I have not ever calibrated the thermometer.   That was kind of my thought, maybe my temp is much hotter than I think it is.  Whats a good way to calibrate it?

    Yes that is my smoker in the pic.  I did have the ribs on the other side of the smoker than the firebox.  It's a homemade smoker made out of a old propane tank.  My father-n-law just showed up at the house with it one day...he made 2 of them and gave me one.

    Smoking spare rib question....

    Thanks for the reply's ...... Sorry.  They were St. Louis style pork ribs.  They were tender and tasted great.  I just read a lot about people smoking them for 6 hours (using the 3-2-1 method) and I'm only cooking mine for 2.75 hours.  Didn't want to over cook them.

    Smoking spare rib question....

    I'm a rookie at smoking ribs.  So sorry if this is a dumb question. I put the ribs in the smoker for 2.75 hours with a constant 225* temp.  When I look at the ribs the meat is starting to pull back from the bone and I have a internal temp on the ribs of 170.  My question is...can you eat them...
