Ingredients for Smoked Beef Ribs
- 4 beef short ribs (about 5 pounds)
- 1/2 cup Founder’s Feast seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Hickory and cherry wood chunks
How to Smoke Beef Ribs
- First, take the ribs out of the fridge and let ’em sit for an hour at room temp.
- Next, coat ’em with olive oil and rub on a thick layer of Founder’s Feast seasoning.
- Then, fire up your smoker to 225°F with hickory and cherry wood chunks.
- Place the ribs bone side down in the smoker and let ’em go for 6-8 hours.
- Check the internal temp—shoot for 203°F for that perfect tenderness.
- Finally, wrap in butcher paper and rest for 30 minutes before servin’.
Tips for Smoky Perfection
Keep the smoker steady at 225°F for that low and slow vibe. A water pan helps with moisture, as Serious Eats suggests. Monitor meat temps closely—203°F is the sweet spot. For a bold smoke ring, use fresh wood and good airflow, per Food Network. Also, don’t skip the rest—it’s key for juicy ribs.
Serving Ideas
Serve these Smoked Beef Ribs with coleslaw, baked beans, or skillet cornbread for a Southern feast. A cold beer or sweet tea pairs perfectly. Additionally, offer BBQ sauce for dippin’.
