Here We All Are Folks,
Back here at our favorite internet site - SMF.
Did some babies today - timing was a modified 3-2-1. Times were about 2.66-1.75-.75 Hours.
The big test was that half the ribs were sprayed with my old reliable 3 parts apple juice to 1 part bourbon. The other half were sprayed with swalker's 3 parts apple juice to 1 part Captain Morgan's Original Spiced rum. Both sets had been rubbed last evening with my rub and smoked with hickory. Temps in the GOSM held between 225-240F. I sprayed every half hour after the first half hour. I also put a bit of the respective sprays in the foil packets. They were all glazed with Bull'sEye BBQ sauce that had been thinned with a little apple juice.
I managed to keep them separate and had them on different platters when serving, which was tough because they looked the same. I told the family members and guest that the ribs on each platter were different and asked that they take part in a taste test. We could all tell the difference. The captain sprayed ribs had a sweeter finish, and they could also taste the difference in spices. I do not have a preference as both are good. One family member and guest preferred the Captain's ribs. Mrs. Meowey preferred Jack's ribs. (I guess you know that Jack will always be welcome at our house.)

Has anyone else tried Captain in your spray? If so, what do you think?
Take care, have fun, and do good!
