Hopefully Im not too late on this. I bought these racks of boneless short ribs. I just rubbed em down and threw them on the grill at 250 with lots of smoke. They've been on for 2 hours. Can I just keep cooking on the egg or do I need to pull the racks off, cut them up, and braise them?

    Never have been down that road but as you note you have two choices-whichever you go with-just go til the rib meat probes like buttah with the toothpick test.  Regardless, I would not cut -but the braise will work if you are looking for more of a pot roast type texture.  
    If you are up against the clock then you can foil with no braise as well.  Your call-
    FWIW-

    Curious what you ended up doing. How did they turn out?
