Hello Brethren, I have been a long time lurker here and decided to make an account so I could get more involved with the forum and try to absorb some of your wisdom.
I'm pretty new to smoking meats and have only attempted a few cooks with varying amounts of success. I have had some chickens turn out relatively well but the first time I tried ribs they turned out very dry. This weekend I will be attempting ribs again and will try to use the 3-2-1 method I have been reading all about. I will be back this weekend with some status photos and hopefully I dont bug you all with too many questions about what to do.
Here are some of the pictures I took while I was attempting my first ribs. I was trying a memphis style dry rub and following directions from a couple different sites online. I was smoking on a weber kettel and I think it was just getting too hot and the directions said basting/spraying with vinegar/juice was not needed. Hopefully this weekend goes better.

I think I took this after 2/3hrs

End Result. They were dry and not very tender.
