Doing my first ribs tomorrow and found a pretty good deal on some baby backs but the top side is really thick. Should I go for the 2-2-1 method or shorten the middle time?? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!
 
Think what i would do is 2-2-than back on the smoker to finish just keep an eye on them you should be all good

I've been getting really thick BB's lately too.

I have been doing more like a 3-2-1  and they have been very good.

Here's a pic of one of them.

Another thing I have found is instead of doing the 1 in the smoker, we put them on a 350 degree grill to finish them up.

They get a nice crust on them.
