First smoke on new WSM 22.5

[edatx]

Beef short ribs. Lot of work for so little result. But goooood. Next time I will get the longer cut ribs. Used Fiesta Brisket Rub with some Oak and Pecan wood.

Looks like you nailed those!!! I love Dino bones, but they have gotten terribly expensive here at $6.99 per pound!

 

[edatx]

I paid like $5-$6/# for those.

Nice first smoke on the WSM!
They look great!

They look GREAT! If it wasn't raining, I'd head to the freezer!

I learned something last month when I had a hankering for beef ribs. I had the meat cutter get me short ribs directly from the vacuum pak. Four short cut ribs with all the meat attached between them. Picked up six, basically 24 short ribs. Vacuum sealed 4 and smoked 2. That's the way I'm buying short ribs from now on.

Yeah, I talked to the butcher at the local HEB and theycan cut me longer ribs, which is what I really want. Few more rib smokes and I'll get a brisket.

Excellent!That's the way to break'er in!

Only kind I really like. Hickory and mesquite make me feel ill.

Well that’s no good if it makes you sick. Glad you found some that you like and that doesn’t make you sick.

Very nice, now that it’s warming up here I can’t wait to get my WSM going again.

Nice job on ribs, and breaking that WSM in properly. I think that's the first of many to come.

Point for sure

I am not a big short rib guy, but THOSE look damn good. Two thumbs up.

Still my favorite rib out there and I grumble about the price but you nailed those bones. Grats!
