Beef ribs

One of my favorites. S&P and a little ancho, about 5 and a half hours at 250. Like brisket in half the time.

    As you said, brisket on a stick and a whole lot less finesse to nail 'em.  Great cook right there.  Congrats.

    The only beef plate ribs I can find are already cut into single ribs for some reason. Hesitant to get them for fear the singles will dry out. Yours look tasty. 
    I like my butt rubbed and my pork pulled.

    Pulled at 200 or so. Treated it just like a brisket. Started probing around 190 and pulled when it was like buttah

    Singles are standard where I live. The plate section one have always turned out really good. Chuck section can be iffy.

    I suspect they are cut singly because they tend to be rather expensive, and are something of a rarity.

    There is so much fat and connective tissue these will not dry out. If anything, they will provide more bark. Go for it!

    @500 - I can get uncut short ribs (4 bone) at the local Kroger-try asking at the meat counter.  
    And as above, even the single cut ones turn out great.
    Go for it, you won't be disappointed.

    Ok. So I ask my Kroger "butcher/meat repackager" for 4 bone plate ribs, not chuck and not back; correct?

    Wow those look fantastic. They don't look too fatty either. Most of the time the ones around me are pretty fatty.

    Amazingribs calls for 225 for up to 8 hours to get to 203 degree for plate ribs. 

    I've done mine at 250-275 in less time but pulled at 190ish. I've had mixed results though the best were grass fed. 

    I've got a two bone 3.3 pound plate thawing for a Tuesday cook. Going to follow amazingribs advice, 

    Bought at Pattons in Duluth, GA (metro ATL).

    Actually there is a difference between the plate and chuck short ribs.  Most likely your normal chain grocery store will carry the chuck short ribs in the uncut version.  But worth asking.
