LOL...OK, thanks Micah. I have smoked one batch of back ribs and they were very good with the membrane on. I will try to get it off them myself next time. I think I am going to smoke alot of ribs for my Mother-in-law's b'day Sunday after next. She still has good teeth...LOL Did you see my rub and glaze recipe I did on the roast? Dude, it is good!
