Smoked Beef Ribs Food

SMOKED BEEF SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Heat a smoker to 250 degrees F preferably using Texas post oak wood.
• Mix the brown sugar, chile powder, paprika, salt, pepper, cumin and curry in a large bowl by hand into a uniform color and consistency. Set aside.
• Remove the beef ribs from their packaging and rinse under cold water. Trim any large fatty areas off the top of the ribs. Turn the ribs over and remove all of the silver skin. Pack the rub only on the top and sides of the ribs; you want it about 1/8 inch thick.
• Smoke the ribs until they register a consistent interior temperature of 200 degrees F, roughly 11 hours. Let the ribs rest for 30 minutes, then cut into 2-bone portions. Serve with barbecue sauce on the side.

TENDER SMOKED BEEF RIBS RECIPE

Steps:

• For indirect cooking, your smoker should be preheated to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. The best smoke for your ribs comes from a hardwood such as hickory or oak.
• Coat your beef ribs with Dijon mustard. Use either your beef rub or the alternative to season both sides of your ribs.
• Put your ribs on your smoker. The insertion of your meat thermometer needs to be in the thickest section of your meat. Make certain you do not touch the bone. Your thermostat alert should be programmed for 203 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Close the lid of your smoker. Your ribs will need to smoke for three hours.
• Put your hot sauce and vinegar into a spray bottle safe for foods. Shake it until it is well mixed.
• After your ribs have been cooking for three hours, spritz them with your mixture about every 45 minutes.
• Keep smoking your beef ribs until the internal temperature reached 203 degrees Fahrenheit. Even though no two racks are exactly the same, this should take eight to ten hours.
• ake your ribs off of your smoker. Wrap them in unwaxed parchment paper, butcher paper or foil. Let them set on a cool surface for about an hour before you begin slicing them into individual ribs.
• Simply serve and watch everyone enjoy.

BBQ BEEF RIBS

Steps:

• Prepare the grill for indirect heat using hickory and charcoal and heat to 250 degrees F.
• Place the ribs on a clean cutting board and pull off the membrane, the thin fatty skin that lines the underside of the ribs. Trim the ribs of excess fat and meat.
• For the rub: Whisk together 2 tablespoons salt, brown sugar, paprika, chile powder, cumin and pepper. Rub the beef ribs with the seasoning and place on a sheet tray, cover with plastic wrap, and if time, let marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight.
• For the glaze: Add the maple syrup, apple juice, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard, chile powder, cayenne, salt and pepper to a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cook until syrupy, about 8 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon on occasion.
• Remove the ribs from the refrigerator. Place the ribs meatier-side-down on the grill away from the coals. Cook the beef 3 hours, adding more coals as needed. Turn and cook until the ribs "bend" and the meat easily separates from the bone using a fork, about 45 minutes more. Brush on the glaze to the ribs and cook for another 5 minutes. Remove and slice into individual ribs.

SMOKED BEEF BACK RIBS RECIPE

Steps:

• Add all of the dry ingredients to a coffee grinder and grind on the fine grind setting
• Mix the result with a spoon and set aside - this is your rub
• Remove the silver skin from the beef back ribs. If it's stubborn, use the back end of a knife and some paper towels to get started
• Rub the entire surface of the ribs with olive oil
• Generously apply the rub, being sure to get both the top and bottom side of the rack
• Place in smoker and smoke at 225 degrees
• The ribs can be pulled from the smoker when the internal temp of the meat in the thickest part is 200 degrees
• Let the meat rest wrapped in foil and in a cooler for 30 minutes and then enjoy!

AUTHENTIC TEXAS-STYLE SMOKED BEEF RIBS RECIPE

Steps:

• Prep. Begin by removing the fat and the very tough silverskin from the top of the meat. All of it. It will not melt and penetrate. No need to remove the membrane from the exposed side of the bones as you do with pork ribs. If you do the meat can fall off. Then cut slabs into individual bones or double bones if they did not come cut up. You can cook them in a slab, but they take a lot longer, and for Texas style, I like to expose more surface to heat to tenderize and develop brown Maillard reaction flavors. I prefer to cut them into two bone sections. Inevitably some bones in a package have little meat and lotta fat. Trim them anyhow and cook them.
• Salt the meat in advance, up to 24 hours. This is called dry brining and it is important for water retention (juiciness) and flavor enhancement. Just before cooking, wet the surface of the meat lightly with water and flavor the meat with my Big Bad Beef Rub. Most commercial rubs are primarily salt: avoid them. While you may be tempted to use my recipe for Meathead's Memphis Dust, don't: it's perfect for pork, but too sweet for beef. Sprinkle the beef rub on the tops and sides, and coat the meat generously.
• If you wish, you can tenderize the meat with a meat tenderizer such as Jaccard. The narrow blades sever long tough strands and do a pretty good job. I normally do not recommend this tool because, if there is contamination on the surface of the meat, the blades can drive the bugs into the center and they will not be killed at 130°F (54.4°C), medium rare. But at 165°F (73.9°C) the meat is pasteurized through and through and you will be cooking this cut to more than 200°F (93.3°C).
• Fire up. Setup your cooker for indirect cooking and preheat to 225°F (107.2°C), hot enough to kill bacteria but not too high to evaporate all the moisture.
• Put the meat on the indirect heat side of the grill, bone side down, and add the wood. Oak is traditional in Texas and it makes sense because it is mild, but other woods work fine. I like cherry. As always, go easy on the wood. Too much smoke will ruin the meal. Add no more than 2 to 4 ounces (56.7 to 113.4 g) on a tight cooker, double that if it leaks a lot. Put the lid on. You will not need to add more wood and you will not need to turn the meat over.
• The exact length of the cook depends on variables such as the composition of the meat (each steer is different). As an estimate, 1"- (2.5 cm-) thick meat should hit 203°F (95°C) in about 5 hours; 1.5-inch (3.8-cm) thick meat should hit 203°F (95°C) in about 7 hours; and 2-inch (5.1-cm) thick meat should hit 203°F (95°C) in about 10 hours.
• Despite what you may read elsewhere, skip the Texas crutch. Wrapping it in foil or butcher paper can turn it to pot roast.
• Once fully cooked, skip the BBQ sauce if you're going for authentic Texas smoked beef ribs. If you must use a sauce, try what they use in Texas, a thin beef stock based sauce, like my Texas Barbecue Mop Sauce.

SMOKED BEEF BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Turn on the smoker. Preheat your smoker to 275 degrees F for indirect smoking using oak wood.
• Prep the ribs. Remove your ribs from the package and place them bone side up on a large work surface. Use a butter knife to loosen the membrane attached to the ribs and then pull the membrane away with a paper towel. If the membrane is already removed by your butcher, move on to seasoning.
• Season the beef ribs. Slather the ribs with yellow mustard and then season liberally on all sides with the Beef Seasoning. This step will help the rub adhere to the ribs and create a nice dark bark. If you don't have any beef seasoning on hand, equal parts salt and pepper will do fine.
• Smoke! Place your ribs bone side down on the smoker grates, close the lid and smoke for about 3 hours.
• Wrap the ribs. At this point, you want the exterior of your ribs to have darkened and the bark to have set. If you take a read of the temperature with an internal thermometer, it should be near 165 degrees F. Once the ribs hit this temperature, they are ready to be wrapped. On a large work surface, roll out a large piece of peach butcher paper (foil will also work, but it will soften the bark in the end).
• Smoke again. Place the ribs on the butcher paper and wrap tightly. Return the wrapped ribs to the smoker and continue cooking for approximately 2 hours, but start checking your ribs after 90 minutes of being wrapped (you will be going by temperature and feel, not by time).
• Cook to temperature. You want your ribs to be very flexible and the meat to have pulled back significantly from the end of the bones. When you insert your meat thermometer, you want it to glide into the meat like it is softened butter. A good temperature to look for is around 202 degrees.
• Rest, slice, and serve. At this point, you can remove your ribs from the smoker and allow to rest for 30 minutes before slicing into individual ribs and serving.

SMOKED BEEF RIBS

Steps:

• Coat the beef ribs with the rub, and preheat your grill to 180° (or the smoke setting) according to factory directions.
• Place on the grill and smoke for 2 hours.
• Turn the heat up to 275°, and cook for another 2 hours.
• Turn the heat up to 325°, baste with barbecue sauce every 10 - 15 minutes for the last hour, or until the ribs are fork tender. The time can vary here depending on your meat.
• Remove, let rest for 10 minutes and serve.

SMOKED BEEF BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Get your ribs ready for smoking by removing the silverskin. Use your fingers or a butter knife to work under the edges and pull the membrane off the underside of the ribs. Preheat your smoker to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C) and load your wood chips or pellets.
• Apply a coating of olive oil and then coat the entire rib rack with dry rub.
• Place the ribs with the bone side facing downward (the side that you removed the silverskin from) and smoke for 3 hours.
• Remove the ribs from your smoker and set on large enough sheets of aluminum foil to wrap the ribs securely. Add the butter, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar to the ribs then wrap and seal. Return to your smoker and continue to smoke another 2 hours.
• Remove the ribs from your smoker. Unwrap the ribs and coat with your favorite barbecue sauce. Return to the smoker and place the ribs bone side down. Smoke for an additional hour, or until an internal temperature of 202-205 degrees F (94-96 degrees C) has been reached. Use a digital meat thermometer to check your meat for doneness.

SMOKED BEEF BACK RIBS RECIPE - TRAEGER GRILLS

Steps:

• If your butcher has not already done so, remove the thin, papery membrane from the bone-side of the ribs by working the tip of a butter knife underneath the membrane over a middle bone. Use paper towels to get a firm grip, then tear the membrane off.
• Season both sides of ribs with Traeger Beef Rub.
• When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 225°F and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes.
• Insert the probe horizontally into the center of the meaty section of the ribs, avoiding the bones. Set the ribs directly on the grill grates, bone-side down. Close the lid and cook until the internal temperature reaches 205℉, 8-10 hours.
• Remove ribs from grill and let rest, lightly covered with foil, for 20 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

SMOKED BBQ RIBS - TRAEGER GRILLS

Steps:

• Pat the ribs dry with paper towels and peel the membrane from the back of each rack.
• Apply an even coat of Traeger Pork & Poultry Rub to the front, back and sides of the ribs. Let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes, or refrigerate for up to 4 hours.
• When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 225℉ and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes. For optimal flavor, use Super Smoke, if available.
• Insert the probe into the center of a rack of ribs, avoiding the bones. Place the ribs, bone-side down, directly on the grill grates. Close the lid and smoke until the internal temperature reaches 201°F, about 4 1/2 hours. Add the apple juice to a spray bottle and spritz the ribs after 1 hour of cooking and every 45 minutes thereafter.
• Brush the ribs on both sides with a light layer of Traeger BBQ sauce. Continue cooking until the sauce sets, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the ribs from the grill and let rest for 10 minutes, then slice between the bones into individual ribs. Serve with more Traeger BBQ Sauce. Enjoy!

SMOKED BEEF RIBS

Steps:

• Pull the ribs from the fridge and set them on the counter for 30 to 60 minutes before they'll be put in the smoker.
• Prepare an indirect wood-burning smoker for cooking at 250ºF with hickory split wood. Alternatively, use a standard grill and indirect heat with hickory wood chips that have been soaked in water for 1 hour. Follow the grill's instructions for reaching 250ºF.
• Meanwhile, prep the ribs: Brush the racks on all sides with Mustard Marinade and place on a baking sheet. Let sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to give the marinade time to adhere to the meat. Sprinkle the racks liberally on all sides with Seasoning Blend, but do not pack the seasoning on-you want the smoke to still be able to penetrate the meat.
• Place the rib racks in the smoker bone-side down. Smoke until the meat is darkly caramelized and pulling off the bone, and has reached an internal temperature of 175ºF at its thickest part, about 5 hours.
• Carefully remove the ribs from the smoker and transfer them to a baking sheet. Using a brush, coat the top and sides of the ribs with Glaze. (Do not brush the bone side.) Wrap each rack separately in foil and return to the smoker for another hour.
• Remove the ribs from the smoker and let them rest 15 minutes in their foil packets. Serve as racks or slice into individual ribs. Plate and enjoy with your favorite sauce and sides. Our favorites are horseradish cream, potato salad and coleslaw, as the acidity of each cuts through the richness of the beef.
• Whisk together yellow and whole-grain mustards, Worcestershire, vinegar and 1/2 cup water in a bowl until evenly blended.
• Mix together salt, granulated garlic, black pepper, chile powder, lemon pepper and cayenne in a bowl with a fork or whisk until evenly blended.
• Put the beer, honey, brown sugar and bouillon paste in a saucepot over low heat; gently warm the mixture without cooking it. Whisk until sugar is completely dissolved. The glaze can be used warm; it does not need to cool completely.

HUNAN SMOKED BEEF RIBS

Steps:

• To make the rub, combine all rub ingredients in a small bowl, and stir to combine evenly. Rub this mixture evenly all over the ribs using slight pressure of the hand to tear the micro fibers of the meat. Place the rubbed ribs in a large re-sealable bag and place in the refrigerator to marinate overnight.
• The next day prepare the sauce by combining the Hoisin sauce in a medium bowl; add the grated ginger, garlic, orange juice, sherry and sesame seeds.
• Strain the wood chips. Place 1 cup of dry wood chips on a large sheet of aluminum foil; mix in 2 cups of the wet until evenly distributed. Close the foil up loosely and make a sealed pouch. Pierce the pouch in several spots top and bottom. Repeat to make 3 pouches in total.
• Remove the ribs from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature. Prepare barbecue by removing grates, placing a drip pan on one side of grill and place a smoke pouch on the other side. Replace the grates over the drip pan only.
• Preheat the grill for indirect cooling by leaving the 2 burners off under the drip pan and putting the heat on under the smoke pouch. Allow to heat to a temperature of 220F heat. Once smoke begins to form, lift the lid and place the ribs on the grill over the drip pan where there is no heat. Close lid and smoke for 2 1/2 hours, changing the smoke pouch when the smoke dissipates.
• After 2 1/2 hours, baste the ribs with the sauce. Close lid and continue to cook for 1 hour basting every 30 minutes. Ribs will be done when you can pull them from the bone with ease.
• Remove ribs from grill; loosely tent with foil and let rest for 20 minutes before cutting and serving. Serve with leftover Hunan sauce.
