I am doing my 2nd smoke this tomorrow. My first was pork butts and it was great.
I wanted to do a brisket next but my wife wants ribs, so I guess we are having ribs.
Here is what I would like to do so any advice is appreciated.
I couldnt decide between BB's or spares so I bought 2 racks of BB's and 2 racks of spares trimmed St Louis style.
We will eat at 7PM.
I plan on the spares to be a 8 hr cook so set everything up to be done around 6-6:30pm.
I figure that gives me a window of 7-9 hrs on the spares.
They will go in rib rack on the top shelf, the trimmngs go on the bottom.
After about 2.5 hrs the trimmings come off and chop some up to put in baked beans that will go on the bottom shelf and the BB.s go into the rib rack with the spares till the end. The beans might have to come out earlier.
No special rib recipe just rub and sauced toward the end. Maybe some basting the last couple of hours.
So my big question is, will this work or should I do something differently?
