Will be doing some baby backs for Sunday. Is there a benifit to tuning and
flipping or better to leave them alone until their done?

Once I tried cooking two racks side by side, one bone up and one
bone down. They turned out indistinguishable from each other.
After that I never gave a thought to flipping.

Flipping serves a most important purpose. It makes you feel as though you
are controlling the process and you can impress the guests that you know
what you are doing. .

And it increased cooking time with no benefit.

Matter of opinion. Some would say more time to drink beer.

Sometimes I lie awake at night, and I ask, "Where have I gone wrong?"
Then a voice says to me, "This is going to take more than just one night"

ROTFLMAO! I'm kind of proud that during my learning process, that didn't take
as long as fire control did. I have to confess though, that stuff close to my firebox
sometimes gets done before stuff at the opposite end. In that case, I take out the
done stuff and move the rest next to the firebox. I guess that means I'm guilty of
moving stuff around. So, poison me with some extra Jack Daniels.

It depends if you are cooking direct or indirect. If you posted
previously the type of cooker you use,I apologize for not remembering.
If you are cooking directly over coals, I would flip and mop as needed,
but if cooking indirect, no way would I flip, nor mop.

I use a large Big Green Egg with a plate setter over coals for indirect.

I wouldn't think they would need flipped, nor mopped.
