I'm also an ex Crown Royal guy. First time I tried Pendleton I was sold.

I have to say I've got the ribs pretty well dialed in on my Weber Smokey Mountain smoker. About 4 hours @ 225* . I usually use Apple wood for my smoke. I put the dry rub on a couple hours before they go on the smoker and sauce them the last half hour of the smoke. Then pull them off and wrap in heavy tin foil for at least a half hour.
