Hello Folks,
I smoked 1slab using 3+1+1 method. This the photo telling.
I trimmed the slab and w/o any glue I used 2 layers dry rub

I set up the 22.5 WSM with tin can M.M w/some water (1/2 gal) just enough for the first smoking phase. I used 30% apple + 70% pecan chips. I put the meat on for 3 h at 250F.

Then I wrapped it in foil w/ some butter+honey+ligh brown sugar pre-melted. I forgot to pour some on the bone side. In the foil I added 1/3 cup of apple juice, too. Then, back in the smoker at 250F for 1h more.

After 1 h at 250F I unwrapped and let it dry for 1 h using some ligh red sauce (cut 50/50 w/water) in the last 20'. This was the outcome

I really like the texture, and the bark too. Not really the flavour. Using 3+1+1 method at 250F I got a really good result, IMO. The meat did not fall off the bone, but it cleaned well. I'll keep on this method trying to make it better.
Thanks for stopping by.
