BEEF RIBS FIRST TRY

[Hawging It]

I am a HAWG MEAT sort of guy but I have been wanting to try beef ribs. I found these center cut ones at my local butcher.. Thought I would keep it simple on the first try so I broke out the Weber Kettle. I used my charcoal method with 5 lit coals on top of a few unlit charcoals with cherry chunks. Dusted with steak/brisket rub and threw em on. Not the prettiest rack but dang it! They were juicy, flavorful and very tender. Steak on a stick! I will do this again soon but may try the big giant beef racks and see how they turn out. This weekend sounds soon enough!

Love this stuff

Not heavy with it on the first try. As it turned out it was just right.

Once rolling right, I turn the bottom vent and the top vent to 1/4 inch.
I never touch the bottom vent again and control everything from the top vent.

Ribs look perfect bud. That last pic is money. Nice work! I prefer those beef back ribs versus the plate "dino" ribs. Has better flavor to me

Looks Mighty Tasty, Hawging It!!!---Like.
Shame there wasn't more meat on the bones.
I've found the only way I can get good thick meat on Beef Ribs is to buy the Prime Ribs with "Bone-in" & trim my own:

Man those look fantastic!! I love both back ribs and short ribs. Love the rich beef flavor. I’ve not tried the Butcher BBQ rubs but have used the injections. Planned on getting some short ribs out of the freezer and doing some this weekend until I bought a ton of butts for $0.99 / lbs.

Looks really good! I'm not sure they would even make it to the table at my house...just stand there and devour them.

Nice job!

Those look great! I've never cooked the back ribs .... you've convinced me to give them a try. After all, I have to wait for friends to cook a rack of short ribs ... that's just too much for me to eat on my own. I would mow through those racks you have there!

Fine looking ribs right there. Great job.

What temp and how long did they take? I see these thinner back beef ribs at Kroger all the time and I've been wanting to try them. Big dino ribs are hard to come by and expensive!

Great look beef ribs, Hawg. I don’t see those too often around here.

Looks real good!
Can’t beat a good beef rib!

Wow Hawg, those are some fine looking ribs right there buddy. Great job, especially for your first time out. I certainly wouldn't turn down a plate full of those!!
