Is the time cooking still the same? Any issues with meat being to dry? Want to just throw the ribs on and forget about foiling. Just thought I would ask before I throw money down the egg =)

    I go at 275 and start the bend test at 4.5 hours.  Never have foiled, never will.

    I have cooked many a slab of spares on the weber kettle, offsets, and other grills.  To be honest, my best results have been on the egg WITHOUT foiling at a temp between 225-250 for anywhere between 4-5 hours.  I let the meat tell me when its done.  No more 3-2-1 for me.

    Nice start to some fantastic ribs.  It's really as simple as the correct Egg setup and the right temp.

    Any road will take you there if you don't know where you're going.

    I completely agree with the no wrap method. I cook mostly St. Louis cut spares at 225°. I also just wait until the ribs tell me they're done by passing the bend test and when a toothpick probes like "buttah".
