3-2-1 for spare ribs & 2-2-1 for bb ribs means. You smoke the ribs for 3 hours, wrap them in foil with some kind of juice ( most guys use either apple juice or beer ) put them back on the smoker for 2 hours, unwrap them & smoke unwrapped for 1 hour. Some guys put BBQ sauce on them the last half hour or so.

On the Apple Juice or beer, do you just use like a spray bottle for it?

Put 1/4 cup of whatever liquid you want to use in the foil w/ the ribs for the 2 hr part.

  For ribs, 225-250 is a good place to start.

I've done that before 311 3 hours unwrapped one hour wrapped and the last hour you put barbecue sauce on every 30 minutes apply a 30 minutes apply again 30 minutes done! They're amazing I usually just stay with the dry rub ... Usually!!,,, Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone!!!!

I have done plenty of baby backs using a modified 2-2-1 method. I put them on my Big Joe at 260 for 2 hours, then wrap them in foil with a 1/3 cup of Merlotor Pinot Noir for 1 hour, then unfoiled and back on the grill for sourcing and a 1/2 hour more and they are perfect!
