Title: First attempt at anything Low and Slow - Beef ribs
Post by: Hottuna on November 03, 2013, 05:29:09 PM: (http://i1013.photobucket.com/albums/af252/Daniel_Pipitone/beefribs28_zps410f6c62.jpg) (http://s1013.photobucket.com/user/Daniel_Pipitone/media/beefribs28_zps410f6c62.jpg.html)

After being inspired from all the post on here I decided to give it a shot. I was going to do a dry run but decided to buy some cheap beef ribs - $12 for this lot, I can`t complain, at least I would have something to sink my teeth into after all my effort.

I finely chopped some rosemary and thyme and add these some of the spices in the image, rubbed the ribs and left them overnight

They turned out fine, maybe a little thin after 2hrs it was holding only 220f so I lit the other end which help temps climb to 275f - perfect.

after 2hrs at 220f and and 1.5hrs at 275f (3.5hours total) I foiled them adding red wine a touch of salt and chucked em back on for 1hour. Then removed the foil and back on again for only about 30min as I didn't want them to dry out. I brushed some sweet baby rays on the larger rack then foiled them and wrapped in a towel to rested for an hour.
They turned out unreal!!

Post by: Duke on November 09, 2013, 06:56:01 AM: Nice job Tuna! I'm going to add rosemary the next time I do these and shoot for more of a tri tip flavor. Thanks for sharing that.

Jeff yes i was aiming for the 3.2.1 but shortened it a little as i didnt want them dry.

Duke fresh grinded rosemary is even better on pork! I think the red wine gave them great colour and flavour and they worked well together.

Post by: HankB on November 12, 2013, 06:31:59 AM: Those look great! I love beef ribs but it's hard to get any with meat on them 'round here.

Nice work for your first low 'n slow. I trust there will be more. :D
