Food and Drink Baby Back Ribs

I usually rub them the night before and store in the fridge. Any BBQ rub will do, once you get the hang of cooking them then you can start making rubs. I have never used an electric smoker, so take this for what it is worth. I usually smoke my ribs for 6 to 8 hours. Keep your temp @ 225. Make a mop; (lots of ideas on the net...usually fruit juice, vinegar and other spices) let the ribs smoke about two hours then start putting the mop on every 40-45 minutes.

To speed up cooking after about 3 or 4 hours you can wrap the ribs in foil. Once you wrap the ribs don't add any more mop.

THis is just one man's simple way to do ribs...there are a lot of good ideas from members on this board. Best of luck to you...smoking is a great (tasting) hobby.
