I'm experienced using the WSM but not the 22 inch Kettle and so here goes. I would like to cook a rack or two of pork ribs in the kettle using the charcoal baskets, at a temperature of about 300-325F so they're done in about 90 minutes (or maybe in a bit more time). What would be the method of using the charcoal baskets: all charcoals fully or partially lit. I get the feeling that the vents will be at least half closed. I am totally cornfused and in the dark here.
Or should I simply skip the baskets and instead spread out unlit briquettes on one side of the kettle topped with approx 30 lit briquettes as shown here ?????
