I got a WSM last week and fired it up for the first time yesterday. I smoked some baby back ribs for about two and a half hours and then finished it on the grill for about 20 minutes and basted it with sauce. They turned out great. I was really happy and surprised that the first thing I smoked turned out that well...

Those are some speedy ribs.  Usually takes twice as long.  Look great, though.  Congrats.
 
Great Job!...JJ
 
I kept my smoker at about 250. I based my time off how I used to do ribs before I got a smoker -- 250 in the oven for about 2 hours then finish on the grill. I would have liked more time, but hungry mouthes were waiting. I am deffinitely addicted now though. Goign to fire it up again this weekend and go for a different cut of meat.
