After a few years of smoking every piece of meat on Earth, I learned that most proteins are best if treated just like a brisket: smoke it until you develop a nice color and bark, wrap it until the internal hits your mark, then rest and/or crisp accordingly. This is how I make ribs now, too.

I have cooked ribs one time in my life, which was a few weeks ago, and they tasted near perfect. Some people might say they were a touch dry, but the meat pulled off the bone so easy. I found a good 3-2-1 recipe which cooked at 180 for the 3, 225 for the 2 wrapped, and 225 for the 1 with BBQ sauce. I am going to experiement with your temperatures next time to see if they come out a little more moist. This recipe called for apple juice, brown sugar, butter, and BBQ sauce in the wrap for 2 hours. Those ingredients matched with my homemade BBQ rub had the perfect sweet/spicy taste for me. There is no wrong way to cook in this enjoyable hobby, especially if your family loves what you cooked.

Bump to 275 for glazing the sauce for 45 minutes to an hour. Moist and fall apart ribs.

I have no problem with the 3-2-1 method, however I found it easy to overcook them with this method (the meat fell off the bone, but was a little dry). I smoke mine for about 4-5 hours. There's an amount of firmness I'm looking for, I can't describe it, but I know it by the amount of bend when I pick up a rack and hold it. I wrap them and let them rest, and then sometimes I'll throw them on the grill with some sauce. The fun thing about barbecue is that there are so many variations and ideas about what is good.

Over the weekend I did 3 racks at about 210 for the first 3 hours or so, then I bumped it up to about 240 for an hour, then sauced and went up to like 270 or so for maybe 30 minutes after they hit about 195 internal. Never wrapped and never sprayed, and they remained nice and moist without being mushy and still having a nice bite to them. The higher temp helps get that pullback on the bone without having to manually do it like you did. Yours are probably better than mine overall, but for me it's hard to have bad BBQ unless you get the texture seriously wrong.

Less is better, and that is why properly prepared Memphis style dry ribs can be so delicious. The same can go for St. Louis style spare ribs. Salt and Pepper for the rub. Forget all the brown sugar, honey, Parkay, and even the wrap. The genuine Memphis style are mopped, not wrapped. Of course, you can wrap and turn out an excellent product, but I'd rather have a tasty, smokey rib with a good crust than a fall-off-the-bone rib soup.

When it comes to Baby back ribs you have to do a 2-2-1 method to keep it from getting too dry. For St. Lewis ribs I use 3-2-1 keeping the temp around 225-250 and regularly spaying them down with apple cider vinegar then wrapping them each with a stick of butter and brown sugar and more seasoning, then put them back on to get the crust back then I glaze them with my own sauce. With my grill it never gets dry and has that perfect bite. BBQ is a personal style and if it's works one way for someone, it might not work for someone else. Not everyone has a 1000 gallon master pit.

3-2-1 and other formulaic approaches are for people who don’t understand what they are doing. Cook ribs until they develop the sort of bark you want and the start of pullback from the bones, then wrap and cook until tender, and if you want sauce, use the drippings from the ribs as a base, boils the sauce to a glaze and brush on the ribs before placing them under a broiler for a minute. How long the first two steps take vary by the shape and density of the ribs, the smoker and even ambient outdoor temperatures. Just cooked ribs Friday and did 275 for three hours, wrapped for 1 hr 50 minutes at 240, then glazed under the broiler. They were perfect: tender but firm, not falling off the bone, fat perfectly rendered and a great blend of salty, sweet, hot and sour: I made a peppery, brisket-type rub, then glazed with a sauce if drippings, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup and hot red pepper flakes.

When I first got serious about cooking bbq I used to use 3-2-1. It was either perfect or a dud. The variables are too great to stay so simple on the times. The weight of ribs varies so much that it just ends up being a very inconsistent method. In recent years I try to stay more consistent on the weight of the ribs from one cook to the next and rely more on color, probe tenderness and temperature. Much more consistent results.

Baste with sauce and finish off with 15 minutesof flipping on medium heat. Ribs are very juicy, the initial searing provides a tremendous fear mixed with the sauce of choice. The ribs are great the next day, very moist and tasty! Give it a try you will love it!

Cooking to your liking is what I do at home I like pullable brisket. Pork butt and I like that rib bone to come out clean but in a competition if your trying to force feed judges your favorite bbq. Your likely wasting your time. There’s no skill involved in. Fall apart bbq. Anybody can cook meat til it falls apart. It’s catching it in the sweet spot. Firm but tender. Same with smoke. In tx most of us prefer. Hot clean mesquite coals. Very little smoke. And SPG. In a competition you need that 1/4 inch smoke ring. With hickory or pecan peach. Etc. I prefer drunk chickens. At home but in a competition your looking for. Skin appearance and not to be just overly juicy. You can really dress up and trim a half chicken to to cook better and get better smoke coverage for consistent color.

Another example, when cooking in WSM, I have learned to burry the wood chunks under the coals in the same size and configuration that you do. I don't care to waste my time in experimenting. And yet most cook videos, but with some exceptions, when cooking in WSM or Kamado smokers, they throw the wood chunks on top of the coals. And none of them possess the level of expertise that you do. However, thank you for teaching, as many of us learn and listen with appreciation.

Raised in Texas on a big offset smoker. I’ve been smoking meat for 40 years. I’ve seen a lot of people, young and old who want to start smoking meat. The 3-2-1 method is just what Harry said, and a lot of you have said…it’s a great way to get people smoking ribs with good results, especially on a pellet smoker. The more I watch what is going on in “competition “ cooking, the more it reminds me of the AKC. Yes, the American Kennel Club. If you watch an AKC dog show, it’s all about the look. They promote breeding for a look, which ruins the work ability, and function of the dog…just look at the German Shepherd dogs. I feel BBQ competitions are doing the same thing. These competition ribs, IMO, are way too sticky, and way over spiced. They may look pretty, although if you have to force the retraction off the bone, that’s a bit suspect, but I don’t taste the rib. Same with briskets, and the steak competitions, it all seems way more for show than flavor and texture. Now, having said that, I’ve never entered a competition, and don’t want to, for these reasons. I’m really glad they are out there, and that people enjoy them, but give me an old Texas pit with dry rub ribs and a truly slow smoked brisket any day.

I don' like them being too tender falling off the bone. so I simply cut it down to like 2-1, check the temp, then sauce them and let em sit for 15 minutes on the pit to set the sauce. it's a fine art to get them tender, yet not falling off the bone because you cooked them too long. kinda hard to see something so incredibly fatty getting dry. I"ve tried them both ways super low and slow, and more fast at like 275-300 and really for me anyway I can't tell much of a difference unless like you said you cook it too long and it turns into pulled pork. your name, does it refer to the qb james harris? who played for the rams back in the early 70's?

OK for something completely different, The way that works best for me is the lazy man way. Step one is optional - Season and put them in the smoker at low temp with just high enough to make the smoke - you can do this for a couple hours or however long you have. Place in vacuum sealed bags and put in the sous vide bath for 24 hours, When ready to eat, place on grill or in the oven (or torch) with sauce to create the bark. You can keep the ribs in the sealed packs and freeze them for later - just throw in the Sous vide for a couple hours before eating. The last step is just a finish and only takes a few minutes. This method for me has created the most consistent texture - Meat comes off with minor pull - not fall off, yet not ripping away. I know this may be considered BBQ heresy but it works for me.

For most of my cooks these days, I like to keep things simple, and have been surprised by how good the results are. I prep my St. Louis ribs the day before by removing the membrane, followed by a light coating of olive oil, then a salt/pepper/garlic rub. I might add some additional commercial dry rib rubs as well depending on how I feel. I wrap in Saran Wrap and refrigerate overnight. The next day I heat my recteq pellet smoker to 225 and throw the ribs on. Then I walk away for 4 hours. At the 4 hour mark I brush on BBQ sauce and walk away. I've never had an issue with burnt BBQ sauce at that low temp, and there is plenty of time for good caramelization. I personally am not a fan of fresh wet BBQ sauce on ribs - I want the sauce to absorb some smoke flavor and caramelize. I might throw on one more coat of sauce at the 5 hour mark if I feel like it, but I'm usually more of a fan of light sauce to let the pork flavor dominate. At the 6 hour mark they are usually done. If I cut the ribs into smaller sections (sometimes needed when I am really loading up the recteq and need to optimize every inch of grill surface), I might take some of the thinner sections off early if they are done. If the ribs are unusually thick at one end, they may end up staying on the grill a little longer. But 6 hours seems to be the sweet spot for St. Louis ribs at 225° (but too much time for most baby-back ribs). The ribs are normally moist and delicious and effortlessly come apart when pulling on the bones. Not "fall off the bone" - there is stil good "bite". Plenty of smoke flavor and full of juicy, fatty goodness and gelatinous connective tissue. Not dry at all. No wrapping in foil, spraying, etc. I've tried that a few times but never felt the results were worth the effort, but I don't claim to be a pro or have an exceptional palate. The 3-2-1 method seems like complete overkill, makes a huge mess, and I don't notice significantly better results. I tried it once and honestly don't understand the fuss. The quality-to-effort ratio seems WAY off. If you are covering the fundamentals well - good meat prep, decent indirect heat setup, some smoke, good temperature control, etc, then I don't see what the 3-2-1 method is really bringing to the table. Could I get even better ribs with more work? Probably, but with a lot more effort, for just a little more improvement. I love my pellet smoker but I'll always get better results on something burning lump charcoal with some wood chunks in there (I imagine great results from an offset wood-fired smoker as well, but have not personally used one). Could I get marginally better results by wrapping in foil for a couple hours at some point? Maybe, with lots of practice, and I'm not sure how much better those ribs would actually be. With the simple method I describe above I still get better ribs than I've ever tasted in a commercial restaurant, I can fit 6+ full slabs on my recteq at once, and I don't have to baby anything. I only have to open the grill once during the entire 6 hour cook, without having to worry about temperature control the rest of the time. I can be prepping other food, visiting guests, and otherwise living my life while really great BBQ magic happens in the background. The ribs end up 90% as good as lump charcoal versions with 30% of the effort. For me it's the perfect sweet spot of still-excellent ribs with the minimum of fuss. If I want to really ratchet things up, I'll break out the Kamado Joe with some good lump charcoal and wood chunks and accept the lower capacity and much greater workload - but I'll still strive for 225° for about 6 hours, with minimal contact other than adding some sauce at the 4-hour mark. It's a labor of love that requires more commitment than I am normally in the mood for these days. But most of the time, I'm getting massive bang for the buck on my recteq . . .

Keep doing what works for your Mike. Thanks for sharing your methods. Small suggestion is to use mustard as binder instead of EVOO as oil clogs the pores so the ribs will absorb less smoke flavor. Give it a try with mustard and let me know how you like it. 👍

I did a video doing ribs with the 3-3-1 method my buddy told me about and let me tell you...if you want fall off the bone ribs that extra hour of wrap time really makes the difference. 225 degrees for the 7 hours total cook time was the magic number for me. Awesome looking ribs in your video and you can't go wrong either way you do it 🙂

3 - 2 - .5 at 250 Texas style on my Pit Boss turns out GREAT ribs. Spritz with apple juice or water after 1hr, again after 2hrs, then spritz the foil when wrapping. Sauce the last .5 (if I'm feeling saucy) = amazing ribs.
