Turbo Ribs::::::::::::::::::::::::Did baby backs for lunch a while back. (Sorry but I can't remember who I got this from.)350 indirect 1hr 40 min.Pull membrane , rub. Put on at 350 and leave the hell alone for about that time. I opened 15 min early and sauced my half rack. This is called turbo ribs and I will never go back to 4 and 5 hour ribs.Note: with or w/o mustard worksSalado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Plus a couple Pit Boss Pellet Smokers.

Welcome @daffy1909 Ribs are often viewed as being good depending on what you are used to and like. The two bookends are basically a slow cooked "dry" rib, like those noted by Mickey (turbo) and BamaGriller (4-5 hour) above and "wet" ribs, Often called 3-2-1 ribs, basically smoked indirect at 225-250 for 2-3 hours, foiled with "juice/wine" for 1-2 hours and then sauced for 1/2-1 hour.Although I prefer a dry more competition style rib, SWMBO prefers the fall off the bone very moist wet style rib. Both are good. IMHO wet style ribs are very overcooked - but that's just what she likes.Wet ribs are easier with a guaranteed finish as you learn your egg's temp control.Delta B.C. - Whiskey and steak, because no good story ever started with someone having a salad!

Welcome aboard and enjoy the journey. All great info above-just experiment and you will find the method(s) that work for you with ribs and everything else you can cook on the BGE.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.
