I use Meatheads Memphis Dust Dry Rub recipe (find it on Amazing Ribs website). He has a page with pretty good directions on how to do ribs.
After taking off the membrane, I put rub on, salt to my preference, let sit for a couple of hours in fridge. Put in smoker bone side down, put in 2 oz apple wood and 2-3 oz of cherry wood in wood box. Set temp to 225. After 4.5 hours I check for done. Usually have to go to 5 hr 15 min though to get done to bite off the bone done.
No water pan in or wrapping in foil, etc. I just put the ribs in and check the first time at 4.5 hours.
Good luck.
