I've been there and done that, but I wasn't witty enough to glamorize
the description. My wife had some pretty descriptive words for
them, but I don't care to share such words with the general public. As
for jimngin's complaint, he didn't describe very well just how they were
not up to par. Too dry, too smoky, not smoky enough, to tough, what?
I run my pit at 270° at the dome near the stack. It's 30° to 40° hotter
down by the firebox. Ribs I cooked down around 225° were essentially
comparabto to those I cook at 300° or better. (non of them last very
long).
