Re: What's in your smoker?
The only time I really cook BBs is for competition. We are cooking at a slightly higher temp, about 260, and the racks are in that 3.5lb range. They are usually done right at about 4.5 hours give or take 15 minutes. It is about 3 hours in the smoke and about 1.5 hours wrapped in foil. Once they are done we just let them sit out with the foil open to reset the rub. Pretty much though, get them to the color you want, foil them for an hour or so and start checking them. When you can pick them up in the middle and the ends bend down easily they are done. I also look for the rub to crack a bit in the middle where I am picking them up.
