Beef Short Ribs...

[Burly567]

I bought a package of Short Ribs from a meat market that are individual ribs instead of a rack. Can I still smoke them, and if so, how????

Oh boy, my favorite!

I was looking at a beef map today, trying to find a cut near them that is so beefy in flavor, but not twelve bucks a pound.

Of course you can still smoke them. Low and slow. Dry brine, then cook to about 200° internal.

I give $6.50/Lb for these.

I'll post pics tomorrow.

Low and slow... 225-235????

P.S. I intend to use Oak with a sprinkling of Mesquite.

Depends on your smoker, fuel, time line, and a bunch of other things.

The lady at the grill store told me a few things.

Use good wood.
Pick a wood and stick with it.
The cooler the temperature, the stronger the smoke flavor.

I'll use Traeger pellets in my AMNPS.
