Yea, I'll sauce some but not all of them at the end. Last 30 minutes and I'll let temp to come up to crystallized it a bit on the ribs.

I've done a number of cooks at 5 hrs no foil. The last couple I tried 3-2-1 but when I got to the last hour the ribs were done and fall off the bone already. Happened both times trying 3-2-1. Does anyone else run into this? I see a handful of 3-1-1 which seems more consistent with what I've seen. Dome 250.

Lately I have been doing 2-1-1 at 250 grid. Not quite fall off the bone which is how I like them. Maybe a little sauce to glaze the last 30 minutes or so. These are baby backs. I haven't had much luck with spares yet but aim to keep trying!!XL BGE

Set it and forget it. Last 30 with either HEB Raspberry Chipotle or Blues Hog Honey Mustard. Yo @Fred19Flintstone, how do you make Wolverine cookies? Put the Wolverines in a bowl and beat them for 3 hours.

Not quite set and forget...but I've done 3-2-1 style with foil in the middle, 1-1.5-0.5 turbo with foil, carwash Mike's method, they all work. It's partially a question of how much time there is for the cook.

Dry rub, set and forget.

I'm hoping Urban is going to run an above board program. We got a rivalry again. I like Coach Hoke. I get to dust off the Michigan jokes and you can proclaim OHOWIHATEOHIOSTATE!XL BGE; Schertz TX by way of Stow OH. #egghead4life

We can do more than say "OHOWIHATEOHIOSTATE".
A guy walks into a bar and leans over to guy sitting there and says, "Do you want to hear a Buckeye joke?"
The guy looks at him and says "I'm 6' tall and weigh 200 lbs and I'm an Ohio State graduate. The guy next to me is 6'2" and weighs 225 lbs and he's an Ohio State graduate. The guy sitting next to him is 6'5" and weighs 250 lbs and he graduated from Ohio State too. Now, do you really want to tell me that joke?"
"No. Not if I have to explain it three times."

I Ronco ribs typically. Sometimes I CWM them.

Foil has a nickname, Texas Crutch, and this definitely will help get the ribs tender. I'm a no foil guy because I think the texture of the bark is so much better.My son who is in his first summer of Egging, thinks foiling is the greatest thing in the world. Shows how much he looks up to his dad

A Buckeye football player was almost killed in a near tragic horseback riding accident. He fell from the horse and was almost trampled to death. Luckily the manager of the Wal-Mart came out and unplugged the horse. #:-SFlint, Michigan

I hate foil. Tried it a couple times and hated the texture. Set and forget around 250 fish. Do a basic dry rub but now leave our sugar. Coat with honey the last hour or so. Sauce last 20 min or so.

I do mind 2-1-.5 but will try the no look method next.XL owner in Wichita, KS

Last one... Why is the Big House made of cardboard? The Wolverines are only good on paper.

No foil, no mist. Smoke, rub, and time (and beer for me).[Northern] Virginia is for [meat] lovers.

I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.____________________Aurora, Ontario, Canada

I go 3-2-1 but never follow exact time. St. Louis style over Baby Back. Surprised how many people here do not use foil? I have done both and think the foil liquids (below) adds lots of flavor.For the foil part, I include some kind of combination of apple juice / tiger sauce / honey or brown sugar / butter.GO BUCKS!Columbus, OH

The Buckeyes offense should be fun to watch, they will be very hard to beat all year. I agree about Hoke, just glad that Michigan is finally somewhat relevant again. Let the normal Ohio State trash talk start, we are used to it!
What is the difference between a litter of puppies and Wolverine Fans?

The first two times I made them, I foiled. Haven't done it in quite some time. Set and forget.*******Owner of a large and a beloved mini in Philadelphia

4-1/2-1/2 ... compromise between dry and fall-off-the-bone.

Set it and forget. No foil. Depends on mood, some sauce in the last 15-20 min of cook.
Everything from spare, st louis and baby back.
