I purchased two slabs of beef ribs weighing a total of 8.25 pounds. I removed the membrane and seasoned them over night with the CS Rib Rub. I put 2 oz of hickory and 2 oz of cherry wood in the wood box. Just started the smoker set at 225 degrees and I inserted the thermometer in the ribs but not too sure that it is giving an accirate reading. My question is how long should it take to cook the beef ribs and what internal temp should I strive to achieve? Also do I want to mop the ribs after a few hours?
Any advice/suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!
