I never actually check temps for beef ribs; I just pull them when the meat has pulled back from the bone and they bend easily.

I usually use 225º to 240º and go for 4 to 4 1/2 hours. I still like alittle pink in mine.

I'm with flash on this one it a time thing not a temp thing with beef ribs. I start out with the 3-2-1 thing but them keep an eye on the pull back and then when they pull back pick them up and check the bend. If they bend easy and alot their done.
