They were very nice.

    When and how did you take the plate setter out

    I took out the plate setter after the foiling process (around the 5 hour mark). This was the first time I've foiled ribs. I thought it worked well. I had to take the ribs off the grill to take the foil off. This was my opportunity to put on my silicone gloves, remove the grill and plate setter and place them on a patio stone that I have close to the egg.

    Just for the record...I don't bother taking the platesetter out anymore..guess I should update that cook write up....you'll get very similar results without the hassle or danger of dealing with a hot platesetter....glad to hear you had good results, and thanks for the mention.

    Hi Wess:

    I'm not sure if your recipe says to remove the plate setter but I know that I read it somewhere so I did.

    We're not big fans of "spicy hot" food. I put about half the cayenne your recipe called for - it still had a little bite while the other spices and smoke provided a lot of flavour.

    We will definitely try your recipe again.

    Thanks,

    Michael

    Not sure if I stated in there or not ( I'm assuming you talking about my rub recipe ) but I took JJ's rub recipe and cut the herbs in half and doubled the peppers..you may want to blend it up the way he intended..was more herby tasting than we preferred...not sure if it's still on this website or not...

    That's the rub. (Wess's modified version of JJ's rub - you acknowledge JJ in your recipe)

    I wanted to try something with more herbs - rather than heat. Once I dropped most of the cayenne, I seemed to achieve that with your recipe/technique. I think you're right about a more fine blend of the herbs - I'll try that next time. Maybe use some fresh herbs too.
