If I use the 3-2-1 method on ribs, after taking them off the smoker, how do you guys hold them warm? If I foil them like I would a pork roast or other meat, will they turn mushy again? I would hate to firm them up that last hour on the smoker un-foiled only to put them back in a cooler in foil and have them get mushy again. any suggestion?

thanks

I don't have much luck keeping ribs warm. I think it has to do with the fact that they have a lot less mass than a brisket or butt.

However, I find that ribs reheat very well.

If anyone has a method for holding ribs, I'd appreciate it also.

croshill, when I take mine off I just lay them in the same foil and let cool for about 30 min open and re-wrap in the same foil and they never get mushy :D :D :D

When I cook ribs, they rest to 98.6 degrees. It is nice and cozy inside my tummy! :lol:

Wood likes the 3-2-1 method for sauce dispermenent.

You know what I am just dropping this one and walking away.
