Provided by Ben

Categories     Main Course

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 racks pork baby back ribs
3-4 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp onion powder
1 ½ tsp garlic pepper (optional)
1 ½ tsp lemon pepper
1 ½ tsp smoked paprika
2 tsp ground black pepper
2 tsp seasoning salt
¼ tsp cayenne pepper
¼ tsp cumin
¼ tsp thyme
½ cup packed brown sugar
½ tsp garlic powder
½ teaspoon grated orange rind

Steps:

  • Cover the ribs in a light coat of mustard. You can either cover all sides, or simply just the top meat side.
  • Combine the rub ingredients in a small bowl. Sprinkle half a cup of the rub evenly over the ribs. Use your hands to rub the mix into the mustard. Wrap the ribs in aluminum foil and place in the refrigerator either overnight, or a couple of hours before cooking.
  • Heat up your charcoal grill with the coals all at one end (otherwise known as 2-zone cooking, or indirect grilling). Aim to heat up your grill's ambient temperature to 225°F.
  • Place the ribs (still in aluminum foil) on the grill side without hot coals underneath it. Cover the grill and leave the ribs to cook for 90 minutes.
  • Remove the ribs from he grill and unwrap the foil. Apply the remaining rub mixture, and transfer the ribs back to the grill (don't re-wrap the ribs), over indirect heat again. Cover the grill and cook for 10 further minutes, turn the ribs over and then cook for 10 minutes more.
  • Remove from grill, wrap in aluminum foil and leave to rest for 10-20 minutes.
  • Unwrap foil and serve ribs with your choice of BBQ sauce and sides.

TEXAS BBQ BEEF RIBS



Texas BBQ Beef Ribs image

Beef short ribs, or "dino ribs" as they are called, are the new hot item in Texas and one of my favorite things to smoke right now. Beef short ribs are from the short plate before the 10th rib and have more meat than back or finger ribs. The famous Louie Mueller Barbecue in Taylor, Texas popularized beef ribs in response to Aaron Franklin's "Best Brisket on the Planet" designation. Each one can weigh 1 to 2 pounds. They are rich in flavor and a lot of times better than brisket. Yes I said it.

Time 4h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

hardwood pellets as needed
4 pounds beef short ribs
½ cup Montreal-style steak seasoning
2 tablespoons mild chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
8 fluid ounces apple juice

Steps:

  • Pour wood chips into the hopper of a pellet grill according to manufacturer's instructions. Set temperature to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
  • Trim ribs with a sharp knife to remove as much fat and silver skin from the top of the ribs as possible. Leave the membrane on the bottom of each rack as this will help hold them together as they cook.
  • Place steak seasoning in a coffee grinder or food chopper. Grind to a medium coarseness to reduce the size of the salt crystals. Transfer to a shaker bottle. Add chili powder and garlic powder and shake until evenly combined.
  • Rub 1/2 of the Worcestershire sauce on the bottom of the ribs as a binder, then sprinkle on a medium to heavy coat of the rub mixture. Flip ribs and repeat on the meaty side. Spritz a light coat of apple juice over top to help it "sweat."
  • Immediately place ribs on the preheated pellet grill with the thicker side of the ribs towards the main heat source (toward the back, opposite the lid).
  • Smoke ribs, spritzing them with a light coat of apple juice every 30 minutes to keep moist, until the internal meat temperature reaches 198 to 203 degrees F (92 to 95 degrees C), 4 to 6 hours. If it is taking longer don't be afraid to raise the heat to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) but just watch the internal temperature a little closer, as the window of being done is smaller due to the higher cooking temperature. The temperature probe should slide into the meat like a brisket or like butter when they are ready.
  • Remove ribs from the grill and place on a large cutting board. Slice into individual ribs to serve, or remove the meat and place on a tray to serve.

TEXAS BBQ RIBS

This recipe won 1st place in the 1996 Chilsolm Trail Roundup BBQ cookoff in Fort Worth, Texas. I usually use pork ribs but this works well for beef ribs too.. Baby backs really do not benefit from this cooking method.
