Having friends over for a rib cook this evening (1/19/19). Will be 8 of us altogether.
Recipe I am following is in the Recipe Section if you want to follow along.

I like to let the ribs get to room temp before applying the rub.

I apply the rub about 1/2 hour before I put the ribs on the grill.

Having a hard time posting. Having to repost each one multiple times to get it to work.

I cut the racks in half for ease of saucing once that starts. Here we are all loaded up

Yeah, it worked. I cropped the picture. Must have been too big.

Normally I run at 225 naked for 6-7 hours but since the grill is loaded and it is cold out I am running at 235. Using hickory pellets. Pulled the grill up closer to the patio door.

Once the ribs are on start the sauce. Here is a shot of the sauce before we start to cook it down.

 [ Invalid Attachment ]

Let it simmer on low. I start saucing the ribs about 4 hours in. Apply two coats to the bone side about 1/2 apart.

Bone side after 2nd coat has set for 1/2 hour.

Here is the sauce after it has simmered for about 4.5 hours

 [ Invalid Attachment ]

Top side after a couple coats. I keep saucing the top side once every half hour until the sauce is gone or the ribs are done.

Post Mortem:
I ended up having to crank up the heat to 260 for the last 45 minutes and ended up running a total of 7.5 hours. But the guests were extremely pleased. Using this method (not original with me - a recipe I found on the net back in 2010) you will most likely hear “these are the best ribs I’ve ever had.”  That was true once again last night.

Not sure what I was thinking in doing 6 racks. Three would have been enough for all 8 of us. But the happy guests were each sent home with 1/2 a rack.

Thanks for watching.

Nice job!  What were the side dishes.  You usually show us a plated picture.

Quintessential ribs.

I'm going to study your post to see if there's enough detail for dumb ol' me to take a run at cooking ribs this way.
