My wife loves fall off the bone baby backs. My first two times using the RT-700 they came out great. She was impressed. The last 3 times not so much. I use the 3-2-1 method and usually smoke at 225*. I decided to try adding more liquid into the stage two mix with the brown sugar, butter, honey and Tiger sauce. Last night I cranked the 2 hr wrapped stage up to 250* and added 1.75C of apple /pineapple juice mix. Double wrapped. When I unwrapped them I expected to see lots of bone showing and other signs they were falling off the bone. They seemed rather firm, not what I expected, not falling off the bone. I’ve had this result 3 times now using Costco ribs and ribs from a good butcher. The membrane is taken off and I refrigerate several hours after seasoning before starting the smoke and allow 20-30 min for them to warm up before smoking.
Any thoughts on what I’m doing wrong. I was thinking maybe the extra fluid I recently started adding isn’t having the desired impact of helping the meat to come out falling off the bone. I’ve watched many YouTube videos but it hasn’t given me any more insight.
