I'm new here so I apologize if this question has already been answered, but I couldn't find it. I have to be doing something wrong, I know.
Anyhow, I have 4 slabs of spare ribs and an 8lb butt that I plan on injecting and doing a rub for tomorrow. I'm trying to get a nice bark on the butt and I know you're not supposed to touch it until its almost done, but how do I do that with the ribs being in there too? Just avoid mopping? Or can the ribs take that long smoke since they'll be injected as well?
Thanks for any advice in advance - I'm still semi-new to this smoking and just using a Masterbuilt electric smoker.
