Beef Rib pic's in Smokette

L.A. These look wonderful. Where do you buy your beef ribs? All the ones I find have no meat on them - they have been scraped almost clean. I would do better smoking a soup bone! I would love to find some meaty beef ribs like these pics.

Very nice looking ribs!

How'd they eat?

So what did you think?

And that last pic is a little BLURRY, not more beer photos...who knows what we'll see.

We get these ribs regularly at Albertsons grocery store. They are pretty meaty, $1.49 to $1.99 lb. I do these all the time in the CS.They are very moist and flavorful.

Well L.A.,
I liked your pics so much that I did my 1st ever batch of beef ribs.

I rubbed with Montreal seasoning last night.

At 11:00 AM I turned the t-stat half way between 225 & 250 and put the ribs in the top 2 shelves. In 3 1/2 hours they were done. I took them to tender, but not fall off the bone stage.

I used about 3-4 oz. of hickory.

I'll do these again. They were very tastey for only being $1.49/lb.

Next time I think I will try either mesquite or bourbon soaked oak.

Hi Mudgie,

I'll second the Albertsons tip. You have to hit them on the right day or you'll get the "soup bone" looking ones. When I showed the butcher the ones I liked, he said he'd keep an eye out for them and call me when they were in the store. You might try the same.

I really like beef ribs a lot and do them with CS Brisket rub or Montreal and a couple of oz of Hickory.

BTW: If you haven't tried CS Spicy BBQ Sauce, you ought too.

These look good. I never do beef ribs, just pork, but I think I'll head on up to Albertson's this afternoon ...

Now I really am jealous. I was at Albertson's today and checked out the beef ribs....that's what they were - ribs, no meat, just huge white bones with a tiny bit of red meat waaaay down there between the bones. Of course they were only 99 cents a lb. too but I would gladly pay more for some meat on them.

Hook, thanks for the tip. I will talk to the butcher there and see if he can save me some ribs with meat on them. The more I read about how everyone makes these, the more I want some. And yes, I love CS Spicy BBQ sauce.

I've seen the bare bones at several places, even at the wholesale place I buy meat sometimes.

Last time I bought the good ones they were $1.79/lb I think.

I need to try some of these....

I really have not have alot of luck with Beef ribs
