Day one--success

those look pretty good to me. nice job. what smoker you cook them on?

the smokette-SM025. i purchased the 3rd rack and side supports which worked well. i didn't realize how much meat were on these ---could've got by with 2 rib-racks. plenty of leftovers today!

Nice job for the first rib smoke. I too, like to cook spare ribs, but have learned how to cut them down to St Louis spare ribs. Lots of meat and flavor on them for a reasonable price.

You might try trimming some of them someday and see what you think. Smokin' was kind enough to teach some of us the proper way to trim them, might check it out. Smokin's rib trimming 101
