I recently purchased my first smoker, a 18.5 WSM and am new to TVWBB. I'm not a fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants guy. I don't follow instructions or recipes slavishly, but I read a lot before starting out. Thanks to everyone on TVWBB, my first try at spareribs turned out great.
 
Welcome to the forum JT!
Toss out the instruction booklet that came with your new 18"WSM, now that you're here, you won't be needing it.

I hope you enjoy your stay with us :wsm: lots of real good cooks here with all kinds of knowledge and know-how
 
OMAHA? Well, they oughta know what to do with them hogs out there for sure.

If you're a native, did you have a Mr. Fanning for any classes in high school? He's a friend of mine from another online community.

I've lived in Omaha for over twenty years, but I'm a transplanted east coaster. My high school was five blocks from the beach. But I have lots of friends who have lived here since they were born into families that lived here forever. Omaha is a great micropolis. Good entertainment, many good restaurants, and you can still get from one part of the city to another in 20 minutes.
 
Thanks for the welcome. I have a question: For my first rib rub and sauce I used a recipe from a cook book, Simply Ming, by Ming Tsai and Arthur Boehm. I know not to present the recipe as my own, but since the ribs turned out great, I wanted to share at least a reference to this oriental take on spare ribs. The ribs were too spicy for some, but they disappeared.
