My Son requested ribs for his birthday dinner this year - so it was to be! St. Louis Style Ribs
I tried a cooking method I had not done before and for the most part really liked the results. I tried a 3-2-1 method I had read about and thought I would give it a shot. The whole cook at 225 degrees
3 Hours bone side down
2 Hours meat side down wrapped in foil
1 hour bone side down out of foil - brush with sauce for last 5 to 10 minutes
What I liked
Easy - Super Easy
Fall-off-the-bone tender juicy ribs (at our house we prefer when the meat pulls off the bone with minimal effort :))
We like it when it tears while cutting - just our preference so that's how we cook 'em
What I would change
I would lower the foil time by 30 minutes next time - I actually ended up pulling them off before I got through the final
hour smoke (probably pulled them after 40 minutes instead of 60
I made two varieties - I did two racks with a rib rub and a third rack with a new rub we found on a recent trip to Spokane. There is a specialty bbq/smoke/seasoning shop there that makes their own seasonings. I tried the Huckleberry Rub as pictured. I wanted to really get a taste of the Huckleberry rub so I did that rack without sauce - it was quite good and I will be doing those again.

Happy birthday to your son! Awesome looking ribs! I am going to see about ordering some of that huckleberry rub.
Spokane is one of my former stomping grounds. I didn't even know they had a spice shop.

Hi HOS - I buy all of my sausage seasonings from them. They also do cures for everything you can imagine. They do have a website.

I cook my ribs in my pellet grill at 265F. I use the 2-1.5-1 method.
Your ribs look excellent!

I want ribs for my next birthday, too! They look great! Thanks for posting the web site. I may look into ordering some of that huckleberry rub. I remember eating a lot of huckleberry products when we visited Montana, Idaho, Oregon and Washington a few years back. Loved them.

They have a great selection of rubs and spices that are lower on the salt content like the Savor Spices. Their sausage spices are outstanding.

Good looking bones. You had me at "easy."

Bones are the best birthday present you can get.
