Bought two racks of baby back ribs today and started getting ready for my first smoke on the KBQ. No idea what time it will arrive, but it may be too late to start a cook if FedEx is running on their normal schedule - so maybe Sunday for the cook. Tonight I put together a batch of MMD. I need to come up with a better way to turn dried rosemary into powder, but other than that it was easy and smells great. A local Indian grocery had most of the spices in bulk for cheap.
Since this is new to me, I've been trying to read enough to understand what I need to do. How close am I?

- Remove membrane from ribs, rinse, trim any big fat.
- Dry brine in the refrigerator for at least a couple of hours if not overnight.
- Wet the ribs and rub with MMD and back to the refrigerator.
- Fire up the KBQ and use the clean smoke setup.
- Cook the ribs at 225F.
- The baby backs would take 2.5 to 3.5 hours in the KBQ before passing the bend test?
- Paint some BBQ sauce at the end (a la Last Meal Ribs recipe).
