    250* no foil, no sauce. Let them go til they're done. Might take awhile. Pull them when they probe tender. I put short chuck on at 9 this morning, pulled them at 4:30 this afternoon. Ran around 250* most of the day.

    +1 with @dmw but sometimes I foil ribs with a light vinegar sauce but only for about 30-45 min

    For me foil on the beef ribs (generally chuck short ribs) doesn't seem to drive them to the "fall-off-the-bone" stage as easily as pork ribs.  If the guests want fall off the bone then i will foil some.  FWIW-
