Just got a rack to make for Mrs. Mo's birthday next weekend. I don't have a smoker so I'll do them in the oven. 

[McFly 602]

Better open a window. Gonna get awfully smoking inside burning wood in the oven.

Bout 2/3rds of the way through the cook.  Thick mf'ers so I'm running around 280 instead of my usual 305 --

Finally off the smoke and resting --

Then you need to find friends who recognize nicely done ribs and ditch the 2-bit mofo ... 😎

It's like a crazy, Frenchy sounding short demon that LOVES shade and water.

No way should this thread fall off the first page. Bump.

 

 

Smoked on my UDS at 275-285 for 3 hours, wrapped in butcher paper for another 2 hours. Put in a cooler for an hour and 15 minutes.

First time doing these. Got some real beauties from HEB. Can’t believe how easy they were.

[bluto 4815]

Damn those look perfect

[scottsins 1928]

H‑E‑B was open and they had Prime beef ribs which I usually don’t see. They also had prime tri tip and Wagyu “finger ribs”.

Went with the prime Dino ribs

These were what I got today as well at bunker hill HEB... for 6.99/lb that seems like a steal. Haven’t been to Costco in a while but HEBs meat department impresses the hell out of me 

[NoName 16241]

getting annoyed at the fact my local HEB only has them randomly, never on the weekend.

stuck with searching the app every day waiting for them to pop up and make a trip...

Where are you located?  If it's that tough to get what you want at your regular grocery meat counter, then you could always search for a legitimate full-service butcher who can hook you up.  Almost every town has one of those.

 

[bluto 4815]

See if you have a US foods grocery store nearby, it’s like a restaurant supply grocery store but they have a pretty solid meat section.

Here's mine done on Easter.  Been lazy getting around to post.  Were tasty.  Prime from the local HEB.  So easy and so good.

Mine rarely has them out but usually has them cryovac’d in the back if you ask.

Something a little different. I saw boneless chuck short ribs at Costco and the marbling looked so good I grabbed them. They shredded up nicely for tacos.







My tortilla game is terrible don’t @ me.

Tortillas look fine, and the shredded chuck is on point ... but why no veggies?

Fresh pico with serranos or just some chopped onions and cilantro with a squeeze of lime would take those tacos to 11!

Barbecued meat is full of flavor, so it can handle strong company like raw onion, pepper and citrus without getting lost. Throw in a slice or two of ripe avocado and your eyes will be rolling to the back of your head with each bite.

Still would, of course!

Doin' some Dino's tonight for a get-together mañana.  I watched the Franklin youtube tutorial just to refresh and made the mistake of clicking on this afterwards.  

RAGEY!!!

Looks great.  I talked to the Costco butcher at the South Austin location and he said that they will no longer cary bone in plate ribs.

 

One of the big reasons I re-joined that place was the notion that I would have easy access to plate ribs.  Now I go in there and spend $200 minimum and, sure, I "needed" that vat of "Bitchin' Sauce" or whatever else, but I was there for the ribs.  I might buy these.  Good looking for tacos.

From last week, New Zealand beef.

Arrived with hardly any fat cap, so I went ahead and trimmed the silverskin and remaining cap from topside (pile of trimmings at top).

Slit the membrane on each side of each bone on underside, makes the bones pop right out after cooking. Also rub some seasoning into the slits.

Salt Pepper Garlic powder, dry brine 2 days open rack in fridge.

On at 4am to be ready for lunch. Temps right around 250.

Wrapped 3.5hr in when it stalled at 170. Wasn't sure how marbled this meat was, and also I had other food I had to start cooking at higher temp, so I wanted the extra protection to allow me to cook at higher temps.

Probed tender about 6.5hr in, pulled them off at just over 7hr. Bones lifted right out of the underside.

First cut.

Sliced to the table.

Was great. Pepper had a little more bite than I'd like, but everyone loved them and fought over the leftovers.

First attempt with beef ribs. They didn’t suck.

[pearlandhorn 3260]

I’d eat that.

Um, I'd eat that but what kind of knife did you use to pull that off?  I've never seen anything sliced quite like it.

Turned out pretty pretty pretty good. I’ll switch up the braising liquid next time for the beef cheeks - was way too salty.
