Dear Wisesmokers. Wondering what position you put small loads. I normally don't fill my FEC up for normal family events. Usually three Racks of BBs, or a couple of Spares. We’ll do Six or so chicken breasts, etc. I cooked some BBs tonight (three racks) on the top rack at 275 for about 4.5 hours. Does position matter? I thought they were a bit dry; however, I’ll admit, I’m used to Spares, which a by nature moister. I know most do pork butts on the bottom shelf, fat cap down. The heat maps I've seen say the middle is cooler and there is a hotspot in the upper left. I also try to rotate (or spin) my ribs if only using one rack.

I don't have a FEC100, but do know position does matter a little. What makes the biggest difference is the weight of your ribs. You might give the FEC owners some idea on what size you cooked?

I'd give a guess that maybe you over cooked them, but I'm sure the others will have a better idea when they know the weight.
