Short Ribs

Finally smoked some full beef short ribs yesterday. I forgot to ask the butcher what grade they were. I'm guessing there was about 3 - 4 pounds of meat on the two racks after trimming. Dry brined them overnight and made my own SPOG rub. Smoked (w/oak) at 250F (dome) until they were in the 205 - 210F range, about 7 hrs.
I think I may have over done them: they weren't as succulent as I expected. Or maybe I over trimmed them, or it was a function of the grade. Anyway, they were still good.
Pics are the racks as they went on the egg, finished product, and sliced.

Definitely pass the eye-ball test. Brisket on a stick.
The key finish-line indicator for any rib cook (beef, pork or lamb) for me is the tooth-pick test. Insert into the thick rib meat-no resistance and you are there.
