Short rib

[kit s]

Good, but...tried something different hoping for that sort of braised results.
Turned out a little chewer than I was hoping for. Though really not bad and flavor, was good.
Planned a long term meal, as I had so much stuff to gobble down already made. So sous vide ribs 31 hours at 135 f.
Pulled from bath and straight in fridge. Couple days later, got the kettle going and threw them on. Seasoned with spog. Kept temp around 200 2to 250. After half hour lathered with a modified bulls eye bbq sauce.
Took IT to 140 f.
Not sure If I will do it this way again..

Served with fries and onion rings.
Was seeing if practical to make these ahead of time for one of the family events.

Single rib, as you may notice meaty. The first one was one and a half ribs.and you can really see depth of meat.

Looks like a tasty plate to me! What is it that you didnt like? The SV followed by the fridge?

Man that looks good, I love short ribs. Well done!

Not sure...just well not as tender as I was expecting (figured 31 plus hours on the sv would make them almost fall off the bone tender). Maybe tenting on some of the kettle time might help.

Yes, that's strange. Ive never done SV, but think that would do it? But, sometimes we are our own worst critics . . . well, most of the time! Looked really good to me though!

Looks good to me, last time I did short ribs I put some smoke on them for a little bit and then into the dutch oven with liquid and lid. After 1.5 hours in the oven the ones fell off. Got the idea from BrianGSDTexoma

Looks like a great meal, sorry not up to what you expected , but like bauchjw , Jed said we are the hardest on ourselves

135* in the SV and 140* IT in smoker is why they were not tender. They need to be taken to probe tender, same as brisket, butt for pulling etc. 202* - 205* / probe tender.
But they sure look good!
