  • Let's take a closer look at the 3-2-1 method of cooking ribs on the Weber Smokey Mountain 22". I followed the 3-2-1 method exactly, expecting it to fail, like it has so many times before. however 1 of the 2 racks, was cooked perfectly! The 2nd rack however, wasn't as successful. This exposure will underscore why relying on time alone can be misleading.
    In this video I'll discuss why you shouldn't follow the method exactly... Instead, consider it as rough timing guidelines rather than strict rules. Why? Because the key to achieving those mouthwatering, "bite off the bone" ribs lies in a different approach.
    The Three Signs to Look For
    1) Look: We'll show you precisely what the ribs should look like at different stages of the cooking process. Visual cues are essential for cooking a good rib.
    2) Feel: Ever heard of the "bend test"? We'll teach you how to gauge the doneness of your ribs by touch. This technique will elevate your rib-cooking skills like never before!
    3) Tenderness: This is the ultimate goal-ribs that are tender and full of flavor. Forget relying solely on time or temperature; use to the probe test to determine when the ribs are done!
    Cons of the 3-2-1 Method
    As we embarked on our rib-cooking journey, we discovered some drawbacks to the 3-2-1 method. It lacks accuracy and consistency, leading to varied results. But fear not! We'll equip you with the knowledge to adjust those times and tailor the process to your preference.
    Are you a beginner looking to conquer the art of rib cooking on the Weber Smokey Mountain 22"? You're in luck! This video doubles as your guide to get started cooking ribs on the WSM. This video is packed with tips, tricks, and advice!

    Very nice instructional video Sal! I agree, 3-2-1 is not completely consistent. The way the meat feels is the key to perfectly smoked ribs. Thank you for sharing!

    Awesome brother man, I stopped doing the 3-2-1 method a while, probably because of you.

    • @SJCOOKS
      @SJCOOKS  11 місяців тому +1

      3-2-1 method has it's faults, it's good to know where it can go wrong so people can adjust accordingly. I am glad you checked out the video!

    Good video Sal. Very informative and that first rack looked awesome but I wouldn't kick the other rack out of bed for eating crackers either. Thanks!

    • @SJCOOKS
      @SJCOOKS  11 місяців тому +1

      Both were enjoyed and eaten. Hoping it convinces people not to follow the 3-2-1 timing exactly since that 2nd would have been perfect if left for another 30 minutes or increased temperature like I usually do at the end

    Been doing 275 for 2 hours then in foil for about an 1.5 and just setting the bark up a bit once its bendy and probe tender I pull it off. Would love a beginner brisket video too.

    • @SJCOOKS
      @SJCOOKS  11 місяців тому

      that's what I've been going with as well! unless I am making a video lol. when hanging ribs especially, they cook a lot faster and are plenty juicy at those higher temps. other than this video, I can't recall the last time I went this low (225) with ribs. kinda crazy!
