  4. Loosely cover the racks with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  5. While the racks are refrigerating, prepare the grill:
    1. Close the bottom vents on the grill halfway.
    2. Make a charcoal snake, two briquettes wide and two briquettes high, around the outer edge of the lower grate of the grill, up against the outer wall of the grill. This should extend about ½ of the way around the circumference of the grill.
    3. Place a 9x13 aluminum baking pan in the center of the lower grate of the grill and fill it halfway up with water.
    4. Evenly space 3-4 chunks of wood along the top of the charcoal snake.
    5. Light 10 briquettes in a chimney starter. Once these have fully started, dump them out onto one end of the charcoal snake.
    6. Cover the grill and let it reach 275°F. Completely close the grill lid's vent.
  6. Remove the racks from the refrigerator and place them on the grill, bone side down, away from the fire. Cover and cook for one hour, maintaining 275&deg.;F by adjusting the lid vent as required. Do not remove the lid.
