    The flash killed the money shot on the last one. Too hungry to set it up properly. Had to eat.

    So you actually foil the entire rib rack? I hadn't seen it done that way before.

    The ribs look good, how did ya like the sauce?

    Great job!

    Great post. Luv the pics.

    First I've seen on foiling the whole rack was yesterday on youtube..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UWn6fyhI3I

    I have not tried but makes sense if you want to foil. Any comments from others that have tried this?

    Yea, decided to foil the whole thing. But with just two slabs, I think it would've fit laying flat. Three slabs, I think I would truly need the rack or some other rig.
    I love this sauce. On it's own cold, it's on the spicy side, but heated on the ribs, it's balanced on heat and sweet I think. Ya want the recipe? I'll look it up and post it here.

    Nope don't think so. I know a guy in Powhatan, but not Moseley, don't think. Would like to meet a local Egger though.
