Rib Question

I've had some ribs on for almost 3 hours at 250. Should I foil for the last couple hours or leave them be? It's a small rack for the missus and myself with original dizzy rub on it.
Thanks

When do you need them to be done and what temp is the egg at?

Brad,
I've foiled a few times but prefer the ribs just straight. Are they sides or babybacks? You may have a while to go if they are sides.

babybacks. the egg has been at 250 for 3 hours, hoping to eat by 8 (545 here now)
Thanks -
I might let the egg creep up at bit to 300 and they should be fine. You can get them there without foiling if you have 2 more hours to go, especially if they are small ribbies.
-
have they been direct or indirect for those 3 hours?Re-gasketing America one yard at a time.

Brad,
You are about right. Usually 4 1/2 to 5 hours for me.

indirect

Might be a little crispy if they were direct

yea, so just leave them unfoiled and do the bend test? i've never done it without foiling for the last half. just wanted to try something new but also wanted to make sure I didn't screw up dinner.
-
That is what I do yes. I prefer the texture to foiled ones.
