Race Day Short ribs, Potato salad &Caramel Cake (pron)

[FatDaddy]

Wanted to try beef short ribs this weekend and searched and came up with this thread. Brethren question - how can you tell if these are done? I was thinking of wrapping for an hour or so but didn't know what the benchmark test was and the doneness test. Thanks for any help. OBTW, these will be done on the UDS.

They pull way back from the bone, pretty much have big chunks of meat. I just probed em and when they hit 190 or so i pulled em and let em rest. I wrapped for a couple of hours during the cook. I think i followed the 3-2-1 method and adjusted times, accordingly. i think they took about 7 hours or so if i remember right. They aren't fall off the bone tender like spare ribs. they require a fork and knife. They are damn tasty though.

You'll like em. I might recommend that the butcher cut em in half for ya. makes em cook quicker and makes tastier little nuggets. We call em loaded ribs at the house. A little wooster salt pepper and garlic is all ya need on em. good eating.
