here is the finished results.i took them off after 5 hours.im sure the wsm could have went another 4 hours without messing with it cuz right around the 4 hour mark the temp went up!
as far as the ribs?they had a bit more tug on them than i get from the offset,but they were way more moist and full of flavor.i hear in the comps they want a bit of tug anyway right?
here are some pics...
as i said they had a bit of tug on em'.BUT they pulled clean off the bone were you bit in.i think these may be the best ribs i ever made.  _________________ WSM 22.5

Jake
With that ole offset of yours i`ll bet you had some pretty extream temp swings like 200 - 275 with each log added but the WSM will pretty much stay within 10 degrees of your target temp so this prolly explains the ribs being not done as much as your used too.
Like any new toy ya have to play with it a while to figure it out.
The ribs look good though. |

yeah i hear ya jeff.although i kinda liked them with a little pull on them.and from what i hear,most people say if they completely fall off the bone,they are overcooked.
now my only question is....what do i cook next??? _________________ WSM 22.5

Yeah.... some people say if you don't stop touching yourself there... You'll go blind... hey... Ummmm... Who turned out the lights???
What should you cook next??? I vote for some ABT's for an appetizer, a brisket for the main course, and some bratwurst for dessert. _________________ I only believe in two basic food groups... Chili & BBQ

Jake those ribs look great.....I've found that if I have to add charcole to the fire add it lit it'll smoke like a freight train with any brand of charcole if added unlit or fill all the way and what ever you have left just shut down the vents and you'll have cole to burn next time around....now step up to the plate and throw a brisket on that puppy  |

| Nice ribs. I cooked on a pair of slabs on Monday. It was 40 degrees outside. I cooked the ribs for 4 1/2 hours on my WSM. Great equipment. Last year we won $150 for our pork entry on this little baby. |
