Great looking ribs. I just stopped at my local Wally World and their beef ribs didn't seem to have much meat on them. They are the same brand as yours were. Did you look close at them before you smoked them and think the same thing that they weren't very meaty?
It's the same as wrapping it in foil, keeps it moist and pushes the cooking process along. Although, I think wrapping it in foil progresses the cooking process a lot faster than the paper idea does.
You could put a foil pan under the meat and then catch the drippings and prevent any type of cleanup or burn off of them from the plates. No burnt taste will come of it. Think about all the fat and things that sit on the cooking grate. They don't cause any taste issues.
This is what I purchased.

I picked up a piece of 16 guage sheet from Lowes. I then cut it to fit the width of the bottom where the lower grates sit, then cut a piece off for the deflector part and used the rest for the tuning plate.
I received a couple of 3" River Country thermometers and I am wondering how far above the cooking grate should these be mounted? They will be mounted on the lid.
Well like they say "Go big or go home" so I said let's do it. The most nerve racking was the huge swings in temp. I think next time a smaller load of starter charcoal and seeing about different size of wood splits.
I did not add any liquid to the pan. Still very moist as there was enough fat to keep it from drying out.
My temps were all over the place. As low as 230 and as high as 300 at times. I used a Brinkmann Trailmaster which has a side firebox. This is the first coke I've done on it so I'm still...
