Those look great! I just posted a picture of the last time I made them on a different post to help answer a question and your post was at the top of the list when I was done. I'm taking it as a sign to make them soon!

The Cen-Tex Smoker said:Nice cook Marty. Hope to see more of that on here. Looks like beef reibs are on the menu this weekend (IF they are under $3 per lb- we are experimenting all month with Under $3 cuts of meat to see what we can come up with)Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

Beef ribs are one of my favorites also. We get the frozen/defrosted one out here all the time on sale but I've sworn off them. I've learned that no matter how you cook some of them you get they turn out like shoe leather. It took me a couple of times until I realized it wasn't me it was them. I think they come from cattle that died from old age and then sat out in the sun for a week before they were butchered. I was at a local supermarket tonight (Stater Bros) hoping to find fresh but they didn't have any. They did have frozen/defrosted in the case for $1.49/lb but just walked on by. I came home with flanken ribs even though they were kinda pricey, $4.99/lb same price as bone in rib eyes that were on sale.XLBGE, LBGE, MBGE, SMALL, MINI, 2 Kubs, Fire Magic Gasser

Stopped at ACME to see if they had any today. I have never cooked them. They usually have a terrible meat selection here on the island but today they had 3 beef back ribs... fiance is out of town so perfect.
Threw them on at 3pm at 300 indirect in a shallow pan. 2 hours later I put on the foil after some broth. 1 hour later I ran out of coals (working on leftovers) and threw them in the oven at 275 for 20 mins uncovered.
Amazing. Never had them before. Thanks for this. Its in the book

May have to try these this weekend. Never cooked them but they look great. The Mrs. Is not a big fan of pork ribs. Maybe these will work for her.__________________________________________It's not a science, it's an art. And it's flawed.- Camp Hill, PA

Ok here's what you do. If you can't find fresh beef ribs, go buy a ten bone rib roast, cut the ribs off, feed the rib roast to your dog. He'll only puke for a week or so but he'll love you forever, or you can cut it into ribeye steaks ,whatever, your choice. Prep the ribs like any other ribs. I mean get rid of the membrane and silverskin and season to your taste. Cook @ about 250 meat side up, rib side down and don't turn. When the meat recedesfrom the bone I baste with BBQ sauce for about 1/2 hr before pulling. I've never taken a temp. Here's how you can tell it's done: the meat will recede from the bone and the meat between the ribs will be firm to the touchXLBGE, LBGE, MBGE, SMALL, MINI, 2 Kubs, Fire Magic Gasser -
Beef ribs are the absolute best.

South Jersey. Not sure why I have never had them. I don't usually see them on the rack and there are not a whole lot of real BBQ places around here.rtt121,

I'm in jersey - they are everywhere. Get some, you will be glad you did. I prefer beef ribs and pulled beef to pork all day long. -
I did! They were great!

td66snrf Thought you would want to know, the primal rib section only contains 7 ribs, not 10. They are numbered ribs 6 through 12.Felton, Ca. 2-LBGE, 1-Small, PBC, PK360, Genesis Summit, Camp Chef Flattop, Smokefire 24, Traeger Pro Series 22 Pellet with a Smoke Daddy insert, Gateway 55 Gal. drum, SNS Kettle w/acc.

I appreciate the education. While we're on the subject how many ribs on a pig? I bought baby back ribs at Costco and they come in three racks. I always thought it was 13 but one rack had 15 and one had 12. Thanks.XLBGE, LBGE, MBGE, SMALL, MINI, 2 Kubs, Fire Magic Gasser -
Love beef ribs too... Have trouble getting them tender AND moist consistently, though. Best results have been using Dutch oven.

My local butcher (Sniders) had the best beef ribs, even off my old water smoker. They went out of business before I got my Egg, and I haven't been able to find them since... :(_____________

Isn't that kinda weird? So, when the pig is little it says I am going to be big and grows a couple extra ribs?? Just kidding.
