It'll get to temp if I wrap the ribs, or if I just do an empty test, so that isn't a problem.  I'm looking to find exactly how long it takes to come to temp with 13 racks of ribs (that's a case of the baby backs I buy.   Problem is the amount of moisture keeps my from reaching 275 until I wrap, an before that they create so much moisture that all the dry rub ends up all over the inside of the smoker, not on the ribs!

I'm looking to dial in a happy medium with the right amount of smoke, the right amount of rub (of course attached to the ribs) and the right timing.  

I'll try smoking a few less ribs next time and let them smoke until I get up to temp and likely re-rub after that.
