Hi!
I finally recieved my wsm and got around to smooking. (was hit by the back-order problem earlier this summmer)
Did my first racks of baby backs last weekend. But was not happy with the end result. There was no bark/crust on the ribs and they were a bit dry and not so tender. I've had much better result on my POS COS...
So what did I do wrong?
6 racks of baby backs on the top grate.
About 4 hours of cooking time.
Adams rib rub
Sweet baby rays honey chipotle
Differences from cooking on the COS:
Ribs had been frozen.
weber roast/rib holder
Water in the pan.
Temp steady at 225. instead of. fluctuating at 250.
No texas crutch (but that should have improved the bark?)
only 10 ounces of wood.
I'm probably going to try a couple of St louis cut racks this weekend. How do I improve my result?
