First smoke ever - Baby Back Ribs!

[quin9335]

Hey everyone,

Just got a 18.5 WSM off craigslist for $150 and did my first smoke ever today. The ET-732 I ordered was defective right out of the box so I was trusting my dome thermometer. Someone on the r/smoking subreddit mentioned that the dome was probably hotter than my grill surface and that I should up the temp to around 250 degrees. I smoked them for a total of 4.5 hours with the last 1.5 hours @250 on my dome thermometer. I was EXTREMELY happy with how these came out. Next stop, pork butt for pullin'!
