How to Cook 321 Ribs on a Traeger Grill
The 3-2-1 method for BBQ ribs is a popular technique that ensures tender, flavorful ribs every time. This method involves three stages of cooking: three hours of smoking, two hours wrapped in foil with added ingredients, and a final hour of cooking with BBQ sauce.
Ingredients
- 2 racks of St. Louis-style ribs
- Traeger Pork & Poultry Rub
- 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 cup Traeger BBQ Sauce
- Hickory BBQ Wood Pellets
Preparation Steps
-
Preheat and Smoke:
- Preheat the Traeger grill to 180℉ using the Super Smoke feature, if available.
- Remove the silverskin membrane from the ribs and season generously with the Pork & Poultry Rub.
- Place the ribs on the grill, meat-side up, and smoke for three hours.
-
Wrap and Cook:
- Increase the grill temperature to 225℉.
- Place each rack of ribs on a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Sprinkle with brown sugar and drizzle with honey.
- Wrap the ribs tightly in the foil to create a leak-proof pouch.
- Return the wrapped ribs to the grill, meat-side down, and cook for two hours.
-
Sauce and Finish:
- Carefully unwrap the ribs and brush both sides with Traeger BBQ sauce.
- Discard the foil and place the ribs back on the grill, bone-side down.
- Grill for an additional 30 to 60 minutes until the sauce tightens.
-
Rest and Serve:
- Remove the ribs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Tips for Perfect Ribs
- Ensure the membrane is fully removed to allow the rub and smoke to penetrate the meat.
- Use high-quality wood pellets for optimal flavor.
- Monitor the grill temperature closely to maintain consistent heat.

The 3-2-1 method is a foolproof way to achieve delicious, fall-off-the-bone ribs. By following these steps, you can impress your family and friends with perfectly cooked BBQ ribs.
