i'd told ya i would figure it out.

240° is my magic temp. 



i threw a handful of oak pellets in my charcoal nest before i put the ribs on for a little sweet smoke.



a light whisper of smoke.  oh man, is this guy good.



good color.  nice a juicy.  von da pa.



and oldie but a goodie.



yummy.



nice ring.



good bite.  i must say very juicy.



this is not good.  better go get another one.



well, i am very proud of myself.  i had a problem and i fixed it w/ ya'lls help.  i did cook spares instead of bb backs.  i raised my temp to 240° on my dial.  i did use a heat deflector (pizza pan w/ holes drilled into it).  works great.  ya'll can call me a sissy drummer if you want because i use a heat deflector.  its cool.  great cooks adapt to their cookers.  i have accomplish this w/ Ursula.  thats right.  who da man.  sparky da man.  :cool:

They look almost as good as my spares ;) ;D. Joking, the reason mine come out so good is because of your tips. I don't see That BBQ sauce around here any more.
So what drove ya to do spares this time.   I'm the opposite, I don't do BB cause I can't see paying $15 or more per rack when I can get the same results from the spares.

Spares do seem to cook up moister at a higher temp than 225. Using the heat deflector in the drum will help with the drippins going down the lit coal causing even more smoke....good call....sissy smoker...

So what drove ya to do spares this time.

some one told me that spares are more forgiving and they are cheaper.  i had wrecked 5 racks already on Ursula and the wife wasn't happy.   :'(  i have always cooked bb backs but the spares were flatter bones and the same size from left to right in thickness.  bb backs aren't like that.  i might have to start experimenting w/ spares.  ya know how much i like experimenting.  just like that 70's.     ::) ;) :D
