Cooking 16 racks of 4 pound and up baby back ribs on a Yoder YS1500.

That smell must have been amazing. Nicely done!

Wow! You gonna foil any of those during the cook or just let them ride?

YODER ON Herb!!!!

Let them ride. 275 for about 4 hours. I do rotate at 2 hours. Other than that cooker stays closed until I start checking for doneness.

They look delicious!!!!

That's a lot of bones. Looks great!

nice load man!!!

Wow! Great cook going on there. That thing fits a lotta meat inside!

Looks like that would work perfectly as an MBN rib cooker.

Herb, when you say.."275 for about 4 hrs......." is it 275 from the cookers digital read out..... or 275 at the grate measured with a different thermometer such as Maverick or such? Thanks in advance

I set the cooker for 275 and let the cooker do it's thing. I never use any temperature probes anymore, except for an instant read for checking what I am cooking.

The 4 hours is an approximation, as all ribs cook differently because of different thickness, different animals, etc. I use time as a guide, and always cook to either internal temperature or "feel" (bend test, toothpick test, bone twist, etc.).

Got it. Thx again.

No photos of finished product.

No pictures of the finished product, they didn't last long enough to get any. They looked just like they do in the picture, only cooked.

First run of my YS640. 3 sets of Baby Backs each with different rub. 3-2-1 method at 225. Pecan pellets.

All turned out great and smoker did a fantastic job. Next run will be shoulder or brisket....or maybe both!

Looks awesome!
