Hello all,
My BRITU ribs are taking up to 7hrs, I feel just too long... I maintained good consisitent temps (230-250)and then ramp it up a bit the last 1 1/2 hr throughout the cook, the fire was good and hot and the wood was flaming before I put on the middle section, let it heat up and loaded the ribs (by the way loin backs). I just can't get them to pass the "pull test" after what I think should be long enough (5-6hrs) Put the ribs on at 6:15am this morning, it's now 1:03p and there still not tender enough to take off. This has happen twice this weekend. What am I doing wrong? The longer there in the WSM they develop more of a "char" look rather than a nice dark reddish brown, which gives the impression too many that there burnt, which there not. ...Help please!
