and spareribs....been reading about the things that worked and it seems that the general consensus is the KISS (keep it simple stupid)method for newbees is the way to go in your 1st few smokes. Bought a couple of racks of spares (one is 8.17# and other 8.38#).What I am thinking is (I have an 025)putting the heaviest on bottom rack and lighter on top like been reading (Smokin wrote closest to heat done sooner) but will keep a close eye on both since weights are pretty similar and cook at 225 for 4-5 hrs without opening door. Will pull membrane before rub which will apply 1-2 hrs prior, will use toothpick to check for doneness and go from there.Wish me luck . Good smoke
Hi everyone, after a couple of delicious briskets I am ready for high school and spareribs....been reading about the things that worked and it seems that the general consensus is the KISS (keep it simple stupid)method for newbees is the way to go in your 1st few smokes.

LOL.I think can fit two racks per shelve without touching if not I think can jury rig something that keeps them apart with minimal touching of said rack.Looking forward for results. Good smoke
