Beef short ribs

I’m going to be cooking some boneless beef short ribs for the first time. I’d like to smoke them for a bit and then finish off braising in DO with red wine. 

Can anyone please suggest at what IT I should pull the ribs from smoking and place them in the DO for braising?  Also, how long do you recommend braising and at what temp?  I’ve read that ending IT should be 200-205...does that sound accurate?  Thanks so much for any suggestions!

    Well I’ve never cooked boneless beef ribs but assuming they cook about the same, I’d say wrap somewhere between 160-170 and then braise. It all depends on how much color you want on them, but generally wrap when the meat stalls. As far as final IT...yes 200-205 sounds about right, but the IT is more of a guideline. Toothpick test for the win. 
    I'm in Fredericksburg, VA, and I have an XL and a medium.

    The above is solid advice. I smoke mine for a couple hours and then braise at 375 until toothpick tender about 2.5 hrs
