And on the bottom grate...........

[Big Al]

Hey guys, just trying to plan out my birthday cook coming up. I am gonna try the Sticky Ribs Recipe with four racks of baby backs, should be great. Now for my question.

I am planning on doing some bbq baked beans on the bottom grate right.....

1. Should I put them on right when I put on my ribs, or should I wait until my smoke has died down?? don't wanna *oversmoke* them??

2. Paul Kirk says that beans on the pit take about 3 hours...is this the same for the bottom rack of the bullet? How often should I stir them?? I am thinking about once an hour.

Here is a recipe I found for beans. Hope this helps.

Looks like 3 hours, but doesn't say anything about stirring.

I don't think you need to stir them at low and slow temps.

I love Raichlen's beans, which have these components (off the top of my head):
<UL TYPE=SQUARE> <LI> onions sauteed in the grease from the bacon you're putting in
<LI> cans of cooked navy beans <LI>brown sugar <LI>molasses <LI>dry mustard <LI>lea and perrins <LI>maple syrup <LI>some of your favorite bbq sauce or ketchup <LI> cider vinegar <LI>diced jalapenos [/list]

Good stuff!
