Beef Ribs. How to? Help

[leanza]

I can only imagine how many great threads there are on this subject. I should do the search, and do the work, and I will as a supplement to my Brothers wisdom. I woud really like to prepare them right.

Here in California, I would suspect we have a ways to go on this subject. ( I may be wrong, if so, please enlighten me). The ribs I usually see around here are "shiners" but occasionlly I will come across some beaut's, :roll: nice and froz, solid stacked up in the side open type case in the Supermarket.

I have always had a low opinion of them because seem to be big, greasy and lack meat. But I understand their potential because of from where they derive, and great meat that is in the area of those bones.

Please help, some good threads please.

Thank you, so much.

Ive always sworn by removing the membrane, but lately, I have been taking the whole rack and ripping it in half on my band saw. From there, I apply yellow mustard and my dry rub. Then I roll them up and hold with a bamboo skewer. Ribs seem to be more moist and still not as greasy.

Meaty beef ribs are one of my favorite things! That is if/when I can find them. I usually only get them when I buy a whole bone-in ribeye and cut them off myself, but they are def. worth it!

I cook them much like I do pork spare ribs. Remove the membrane, rub and onto the pit for about 6-7hrs at 235°-265° until they are tender...

Some here we do pretty regular now - Old pics though. Search for thread called Beef Ribs, a week or so ago.

We settled on marinating in margarita mix, rubbed with Montreal and some minced garlic, bacon on top - About 6 hours at 225-230, no foil. Use a beer mop every couple of hours.
