Nixing the 3-2-1 method

[DesertRat]

The first couple or three years that I smoked I had a very beginner level electric smoker and at our high altitude home it was difficult to keep heat in it. So the 321 was pretty much mandatory. However, since I got this Rec Tec 590 I've not used the 321 very often. I don't think I've used it for well over a year, always cutting back the times at all three stages I think it's fair to say.
But this method is quite different. I'm going to give it a try soon. And I'm wondering if any of you have heard of it or have an opinion about it. I meant to say earlier, I have always cooked at 225, and here he's cooking at nearly 250 fahrenheit. 3hrs 10 minutes total

3-2-1 was my start. Now, no wrapping and better control of final product. I'm not a fan of "fall off the bone" ribs, prefer a little bite

Me too. But sometimes I'll cook them fotb for company that likes them that way. Just a bit too done for me.
