I finally got the hang of smoking baby back ribs

[Hoover]

After multiple attempts at smoking some slabs of baby backs (always came out too dry), I finally nailed it. Cooked ‘em at 225 with 3.5 oz of apple wood for 5 hours and 20 min. Ditched the thermometer for the eye and toothpick test and when I dug in they were falling off the bone and perfectly cooked. Appreciate all the tips on the forums for getting me there!

Outstanding! Glad you had a great cook and enjoyed the ribs!

What kind of rub did you use?

Congrats!  It can take a little practice, a little luck.  Good looking bark!
