Dark Bark Beef Ribs

[joe cossack]

smoking beef ribs for the first time today could use some #s
I was thinking 3 hours for smoke (mesquite +?)
Then wrap it to become tender to see the bones pull back
Is that it?

I smoke them the same way I do brisket. About 4hrs on the grill - then foil with beef broth until tender - then back on the grate to finish. Time will depend on temp, weather, and type of smoker. Good luck and let us know how you do them and how they turn out.

Mine were tender with out wrapping or spritz

. My back ribs are in the smoker at 197 right now. Fire is pretty much out. I just knocked the last of it into coals and I just let it chill in there until I’m ready to pull them out. They will be tough if u didn’t brine them tho. These ribs I’m doing now I brined for 3 days. Then took them down to the river and washed them in a decent little current to get all most the salt off. That was fun, moved some rocks to make a funnel and high speed area. This is on a stick burner

Took about 5 hours and I put the meat on before starting the fire and I bring the temp up slow so it usually doesn’t get to 225 for 1 hour but the temp came up to 250. I wouldn’t wanna go higher then that
