First attempt at 2 racks of ribs with a rub my daughter made for me. BGE lump with some apple wood chunks buried in the lump. 325 plate setter with drip pan. The bottle opener is the key to this whole operation. Sorry new to this posting, pics have been added.

    Looking good @Eggingaround. It's been a while since I had an egg look like that inside.

    I've never had an egg look like that inside.  Bought an egg fest egg ... think it was the over-night grease ball cook egg.  I'm jealous.

    They look good eggingaround.  Looks like you're leaving one bare and saucing the other.  What sauce are you using?

    @greg345 thanks @Sammi‌ I got the Egg for Christmas and loving it! @Jeepster yes one rack is dry rub and the other is sauced with Austin's Own. The sauced rack was very tender fall off the bone where as the dry rub was just a bit under done some meat sticking to the bone. Should I have moved them to different areas on the grate during the cook? Total time was 3 hrs at 325-350 plate setter a drip pan with some water in it.

    Having the meat still stick to the bone isn't a bad thing, I like them to just have some pull from the bone.  But everybody has their preferences.  What was in the rub she made for you

    Are you sure the "dry" one wasn't slightly over done?  That one looks like it spent the cook towards the back of the egg ... hotter there.  It's broadside to the opening between the legs of the plate setter ... again hotter there.  And, you sauced the one it front which would have provided some cooling.

    Like you, I'm a newbie, so take my input with a grain or two of salt.

    Logchief-  5Tbl smoked paprika, 1Tbl+1tsp garlic powder, 1/2C kosher salt, 1Tbl+1tsp black pepper, 1/2C dark brown sugar, 2Tbl chipotle chili powder,  2tsp cumin, 1tsp cinnamon, 2tsp ground ginger, 4Tbl white sugar, 2tsp dry mustard . I would cut back on the salt a bit. The ribs could have been over done they seemed a little dryer than the sauced. Still trying to figure the Egg out. In general the back of the Egg is hotter? So moving them around would probably give me a better result to help even out the heat exposure? Overall they were pretty good. Family really enjoyed them, I tend to be more critical of my cooking.

    Often when I take pictures with my iPhone 4S they are sideways. I send them to my e-mail, down load them to the PC, and open them. You can then view and fix it by turning it the correct way. Simply save it by over writing the original.
