I’m thinking about doing some beef ribs for the first time. Any good tips? Time and temps? Monitoring temp?

Are they done around the 200° mark like pork ribs and brisket?

Use the tooth-pick test for the win. Never have temped any rib cook but based on info in other threads 200+/- sounds about right. Enjoy.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

Assuming you are doing short ribs, note there are 2 kinds, plate and chuck. The plate are more tender, and don't take quite as much cooking. The plate variety have flatter bones than the chuck, which can be almost round. As in rcone's pix, when they draw back like that, they're done.

Did some beef plate ribs last September. Fun cook at about 6 hours. Looked like this.
My tips - make sure you put a drip pan under them, there will be a lot of drippings. Be aware of the membrane when you probe with toothpick for doneness. These still had the membrane I was fooled thinking they were not done. One of these was more than enough for a meal.Ubi panis, ibi patria.

Beef ribs are hands down my favorite cook on my Egg. Smoke at 250 for about 5 hours until they probe like buttah and you’re good to go. They’re just like pork butt in that they’re almost impossible to screw up. You’ll wonder why you didn’t try them a long time ago. Don’t worry, you got this.

If it wasn't for my BGE I'd have no use for my backyard... -
Here is my cook from last summer. Definitely give it a go.
