Smoked Pork Ribs using the 3-2-1 method is a very popular, fool proof way to get incredibly tender, fall off the bone meat. Unfortunately, the ribs end up getting too mushy and soft in texture for my liking. I prefer using a modified version of this technique in order to achieve a super tender and juicy rib that still sticks to the bone and has unbelievable flavor.
