First Ribs- Bone up or down?

[babyhewi]

Sounds like a silly question but I'm a bit confused.  So which is it?  I'm leaning toward curve (bone) bone down unless I hear otherwise in the next 30 min.  (9:35 EST) and the smoker is just about ready.  I'm also going naked!! Well the ribs are, not me.  Wish me luck and pics will follow!!

Curve (bone) down for me.    Good luck!

I start by placing each slabs meat side up on the racks.

Thanks all! Yes I did bone down but had a last minute scare by reading something (not here) that advised otherwise.  Silly girl - I strayed away from the grail.  It won't happen again.  And yes I removed membrane and trimmed them to st loui myself.  Fun with knives!!

That a girl Tara, jump right in and start to cutting your own St. Louis style spares. Hey there's nothing wrong with smoking ribs nekkid!! We have all done it. I just talked Nepas out of posting the pics of him doing it!! ;D
