I am smoking ribs today

Have you gotten any new blades lately?
I like it! We gave my brother one when he started cooking at a nice restaurant about 12-15 years ago. He's always loved it. Decided to treat myself to one. Makes the Wusthof stuff feel like garbage. On the upside, the place I bought it from will sharpen my Wusthoff knives for free.
Apparently I don't have the mod buttons to change that. Odd.
What type of ribs are you smoking?
Pork back ribs
How long have they been on the smoker, what type of rub are you using (savory or sweet) and what type of wood are you using?
I have a Classic hollow-ground santoku - I think that's the same series/line as yours. Definitely a nice knife. Similar grade Wusthof feel just as good, though.
Ok. Do you have any apple cider vinegar or apple juice around?
I do. I have cider vinegar and I have apple cider.
ok. use the apple cider. you need to spritz the ribs every half hour.
after 2 hours on smoke......take the ribs off of the grill and wrap them in foil. add a little apple cider to the foil pack and go back on the smoker for another two hours (no need to spritz on this step) - after two hours, unwrap and leave on the smoker for another 45 to 60 minutes. if you want to add sauce - add it at the last 20 minutes....
I got this knife earlier this year. I love it:

That looks almost identical to the Hammerstahl 10" I almost bought (and probably will buy next time I'm there).I got this knife earlier this year. I love it:

I feel like that length would annoy me. I like the look and appearance of quality of it, though.I got this knife earlier this year. I love it:

small hands bro. I looked at their 8" and cut with it, it was too big for me. I feel like I can make more precise cuts and have better control with the smaller 6" knife.
One correction, the wood is mesquite, not hickory.
I have some Stubbs Original to sauce with. Lower carb than the thicker, sweeter sauces that I prefer.
Cider has been applied. Will apply again around noon, then foil wrap at 12:30 after my meeting.
