Hot/Fast baby backs

[Chasdev]

Today is baby backs and I'm going to try hot/fast indirect this time.
There seems to be two schools of thought on this, one is super hot (400+) for a short time (15 min) then down to 325 for two hours or so.
Next up is low temp at first then turning up high to finish, 200 for an hour followed by 350 for an hour.
Both with no wrap or water pan.
Anybody tried this/these?

I can report that high temp first and then "down" to 325 failed for me, two hours at that temp burned them to a crisp except for the thickest part of the meat which was great.

many times in order to get a cook going I'll start meat on the stick burner at higher temps while waiting for temps to calm down to the 250 range but it's never real hot for more than 20-30 minutes

I have done 325° baby backs on the kettle before with good success.
I found using indirect heat for the cook works best. I do a series of 15 minute rotations during the cook.
Start meat up and after 15 minutes spin the ribs 90° and go another 15 minutes.
Next turn the ribs meat down and go 15 minutes then spin them 90°.
I continue this rotation process till they are cooked.
I hope this helps.

Glad to hear that, I was using a pellet burner and to me it seems like I left them on an hour too long, either that or my digital temp probes both went way south at the same time..
