    trimming ribs

    I think I'm going to try trimming them, althoughI dont know if I'll have room on the smoker. I'm going to try and cram 7-8 slabs on my 18.5 this weekend. Maybe I'll just toss them on the gasser with the chickens.

    trimming ribs

    makes sense. How many full slabs can you get on the 18.5? I've done 6 before and it seemed pretty tight.

    Cooking Pulled Pork a day ahead.

    I did this for the super bowl. I finished the day before around midnight, waited 30 minutes, pulled it in the crock pot pan, then put it in the fridge. Next day, about 2 hours prior I popped in in the crock pot and put it on low. Came out out perfectly.

    How many slabs of ribs?

    I'm looking to do 6 slabs of ribs tomorrow on my 18.5" bullet. What would be the best way to fit them on ther? It seems like you can fit up to 4 on a rib rack on each grate, and then rotate them halfway through (swap the grate positions). Or would it be best to try and roll all of them and fit...
