Smoked some beef back ribs today and WOW did they take a long time! 7 hours at about 190-200* and they could have been on longer. Sorry no pix.
Membrane pulled
Basic light rub put on about 5 hrs before smoke'n
3.5 hrs on smoker bone side down
spritz about twice w/worches, cider vinegar, beer, and water
put in foil for 1hr w/thin bbq sauce - vinegar based + worches
out of foil for 2 hrs basting w/bbq sauce
then back in foil for last 1/2 hr and let rest for 1/2 hr before eating.
Rub and sauce was very good, we liked it alot. Could have cooked for a while longer to make true "fall off bone ribs". They had a nice easy bite, except for "other" membrane, and were very juicy. They just could have been on longer. I didn't want to over do them and pulled them when the meat pulled back from the bone about 1/2" +.
Great taste'n ribs, just not perfect. So darn, I gotta do them again soon
give yourself plenty of time to do this type of rib. Much more meat, a little fatty but not bad, and a nice change from pork ribs.
Hope this helped someone, it helped me.......................drink for 7 hrs
