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.
