Can anyone identify that larger cut?
I went to a local butcher shop a few days ago and asked for some short ribs from the short plate. I've never smoked or had beef ribs before. I knew they are much meatier than pork ribs, but this was a total surprise when he came back with this massive cut. After buying them, I started suspect that they weren't really what I want, so I went to talk to the butcher in the local grocery store and he sold me the ribs on the left.
I was planning on smoking these tomorrow, starting at around 10 AM so they'd be ready for supper around 6 PM as I've read that beef ribs take about 6 to 8 hours typically. However, after seeing how small these other short ribs are, I'm thinking I need to do the larger cut overnight.
Any suggestions?
