Smoked Beef short ribs are one of my favorites if I don't have a lot of time. Smoke for about 3 hours and you are ready to have some fall of the bone beef short ribs.

How To Smoke Beef Short Ribs

To prepare the beef short ribs you first of all have to remove the membrane from the backside. Forgetting this and you will end up with a tough layer on that side of the short ribs.

Seasoning

• • 1/4 Cup Brown Sugar.

• • 2 Tbsp. Black Pepper

• • 1/2 Tbsp. Salt

• • 1 Tbsp. Onion Powder

• • 2 Tsp. Ground Mustard

• • 2 Tsp. Garlic Powder

• • 2 Tsp. Chili Powder

• • 1 Tsp. Cajun Seasoning.

Smoking

Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C) and let it stabilize for a while at this temperature. I suggest you use a digital thermometer for this. Now it is time to place the beef short ribs on the smoker and leave them there for about 1 hour. Tip: I like to smoke beef short ribs with the bone side up! After 1 hour check the internal temperature with a digital handheld thermometer and see if it reached about 150 -160°F (65 - 71°C). If it is at this temperature I wrap them in Aluminum foil or Butcher paper. and place them back on the smoker.

The Finishing

We, my wife and I, like our ribs very tender so it does not matter to us if they are kind of overcooked. In general, I check them after another hour on the smoker to see if the internal temperature has reached about 190°F (87°C). If that is the case I pull them and let them rest for about 10 minutes.
