FYI: I have a Cookshack smoker and while others online have had great success with it, my cooking on it (besides a couple of times) has been kind of dry or tough doing things like ribs.

Well I finally bought some ribs and had a buddy that has been in some competitions come up and do them on my smoker. They turned out fine and probably would on anyones smoker, not just a Cookshack. So thought I would share what I documented (can't trust memory for stuff like this
