Cliff,
Just yesterday, I smoked three racks of spare ribs on my WSM. I
always use the sand and foil method. It was pretty warm around here
yesterday, and I was able to keep the temp in the 225-250 range on
both racks for pretty much the whole 6 hours. The ribs were as good
as I've ever made.
So I vote for the sand and foil.
Hey, is there any good Q to be had in Pgh these days? I was on
sabbatical there 8 years ago, and there wasn't much to be found. I
went to Wilson's on the North Side, to House of Sauce, and to some
former Denny's-like place a bit east (you can see that it wasn't too
memorable). But nowhere in Pgh did I find really good Q.
