First smoke

[Brokenhandle]

Good looking ribs! And yes just keep trying different variations until you settle on what you like best! To me ribs were the most important thing I wanted to nail. Started off following @SmokinAl perfect ribs every time and really loved them, had to cut them in half to fit in my mes 30. Wanted to use my cheap $20 kettle to do ribs, so found out I had no temp control either like you mentioned... no wrap and done at 300 degrees it takes way less time and its our favorite way now!
Many ways to skin a cat as they say!

Nice to get that first smoke under your belt as they say.....or in your belly.
Everyone liked it , thats what matters.

Now your off and not looking back

My first smoke was ribs too. They were not my best effort, but what did I know, everybody loved them!

Congrats on your first smoke, Instead of using water for your spritz try apple juice or a mixture of apple juice and rum (in the spritz ). I think the sugars help build the bark up.
