First smoke ever...tried some pork ribs (pics)

[seery]

Today was my first attempt at smoking. Did two full racks of pork ribs.

Folks came over for an early dinner and I am very excited to say they were tender, juicy, and fell off the bone.

Thanks to Bear for helping me along. Followed his guide and did a hickory chip 2.5-2.5-1 with mustard, home made rub, and apple juice.

My dad and I both thought the hickory was a little strong, but the ladies loved it. 

We're excited to read and learn from all of you generous folks and look forward to many more smokes!
