Rib Racks

[Guest]

I have smoked baby backs in my WSM using a rib rack and also just laying the ribs flat on the grate. I will mop a couple of times with an apple juice mixture during the smoking process. Do ribs smoked using a rib rack turn out less moist than ribs just laying flat on the grate? I may be wrong in this assumption, but I would think that the juices in the meat and those I apply during the mopping process would run off more easily in a rib rack leaving a little dryer piece of meat.

I think you may be over thinking this one /infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif
In my limited experience I've recieved my best scores with ribs cooked in racks. But I've not learned how to cook BBQ yet, so it might just have been that I got lucky the day I used racks /infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif
