Been doing ribs for years always the same way with a KC city style rub i got off of the internet and tweaked to my liking, rub goes on the night before along with drizzling honey and Parker squeeze butter on them. I never wrapped and always sauce in the 45 mins or so at the end of the cook.
So here are the 1st's that I tried, used mustard as a binder instead of honey and butter. Tryed out Kosmos killer bee honey Chipotle rub ( great stuff!) And I wrapped, tried the 3 2 1 method I've heard people on here talk about. Put brown sugar and butter in the foil with ribs meat side down into the butter and brown sugar. I probably didn't do a whole 1 at the end of the cook since the ribs were done when I unwrapped them i just put a thin layer of sweet babyrays original bbq sauce on them and let it get sticky maybe 20 or 30 mins unwrapped at the end.

They turned out amazing i used my offset smoker with charcoal base and sticks of cherry and hickory for the smoke. Hard to say of they were than my normal way or not but they are definitely on the same level! I will try my way with the 3 2 1 method next time to see for sure if its worth the extra work to wrap them. Either way was a fun experiment and everyone was happy with the results.

Looks like I couldn't wait and just took a bite off the rack but this was a chunk that broke off from picking them up with tongs when I unwrapped them.

The wife made scalloped taters and oven roasted zucchini and squash with a garlic pepper seasoning.

Looks really good from here! One of my favorites, especially with those sides.
