I'm really happy you didn't wrap the ribs. To me not wrapping the ribs is a game changer during the cook.

I have never tried them not wrapped, why do you like to do them unwrapped?

Decided I would try it unwrapped first. They were juicy and fall off the bone. Should have sauced them again 10 min or so before coming off to rest but they were darn fine! I spritzed them with apple juice every 30 mins after the first 1 1/2. We’ll wrap them up next time to see which one is better:..
 
Sadly, i havent had enough ribs wrapped vs unwrapped to come to a preference. Outside of process, i feel like wrapping would lose a bunch of bark but that doesnt seem to be the case.

From my experience

Wrap in foil equals loss of bark
Wrap in butcher paper I prefer peach paper equals retains bark.
 
So we made smoked rib nachos the other night with the leftover ribs…they were perfect! So I have been commanded to the smoker again. This time they’ll be over hickory smoke. Still unwrapped because the bark was super tasty on the last ones. Let you know how they turn out. 5289E82C-F6DF-4D7F-935D-C12FFE543B6D.jpegA0A1178E-379A-4379-8E86-9F13F7475EED.jpeg
 
Nachos are looking good! I have made nachos with left over pulled pork many times but never with ribs, that's a great idea, will need to remember that.
