    Those look amazing, I will definitely try them out.  

    Question:
    I once tried putting a fist size chuck of wood like they seem to be recommending. It produced so much smoke, I chickened out and removed it to put small chips instead. How come when they put the meat in the video there is barely any smoke and yet, they show a big chunk in the pictures?

    Looks great - I love beef ribs, but I never think to buy them.  Thanks for the reminder!

    It may have caught on fire but that will quickly be snuffed out do to the lack of air-flow. Then it will just smolder.When you put the chunks in, let it sit for a bit and the smoke will begin to clear. You want the "clean smoke" that is bluish and translucent.

    Yeah it was definitely bad thick white smoke. I guess it takes much longer to get clear smoke than with chips. While waiting for this answer, I searched the forum and a guy recommended putting the chunk as you light the lump. So your right, waiting it out should solve it.

    Mix it in with the lump so you get steady smoke.  Less smoke for longer makes much better BBQ than heavy smoke for a short period.  Always wait for good the good smoke like eggcelsior said above.

    I forgot to mention that I used red oak and that made them even better. If you can get red oak you've got to try it and you'll never use any other wood with the beef ribs. Also these were only $2.99/lb., makes for an inexpensive meal.

    Good tips. I would never have guessed to use red oak, I will try it out.

    The butcher left a lot of meat on them bones! Lucky you. I don't usually find them that meaty but wish I did. Looks great!

  • Beef back ribs on the egg as we speak. Will pull at halftime of Kentucky- Texas A & M game. Game at A & M but I'm confident KY will win this one on the road.
