Ribs are done

[ijd39]

Cooked 6 1/2 hrs. at 225 turned out great, potatoes were not soft enough but had a nice smoke taste

 

[SuperDave]

They look great!  You will be happy at lunch tomorrow as they will be even better.

 

[ijd39]

Yes, I only ate 1/2 so I will have the other tomorrow

Nice job!  Those look great!  You can nuke the taters for about 5 minutes before putting them in the smoker, and they'll be soft.  Gives 'em a little "head start."

Good looking ribs and taters.

+1 good result.  Many times better the day after on the gasser.

Your ribs look great, with the potatoes I put them on second shelf from the bottom.

But as Tony said, you can nuke them before putting them in the smoker or after you pull them from the smoker.

Don;t potatoes too close the inside thermo element keep the temps too high in the box?  I thought I read some ages ago keep them up top.

I do this all the time and it works great.
