Well yesterday I threw on 2 racks of “loin baby back ribs”. Can’t keep track of of all the options. On my Oklahoma Joe Bronco 2.0. This time I hung them with using diffuser plate at 250 is. At one hr I spritzed with apple juice and again at 2 hr. At 3 hr I glazed and put in foil pan covered. Cooked additional hr then sauced and on grate till sauce set. Had great bite, tenderness was good but overall kinda dry(rested 1 hr wrapped) last and first time I did ribs( shorter) baby backs they were way better.

For some reason the last 2 racks of baby backs I've done have gotten dried out on me also. RT pellet, Verified temps (usually 240°) 3 hrs, 1 1/2 foiled, sauced and approx another hr, or about 5 hrs if not wrapped, sauced and about 45 mins to set. 🤔
I know you can get some tough meat at times, both those racks were purchased same time.
