    Picked up a 3-bone, 4.25 lb rack of beef ribs today. Just through them on my fire pit at 12pm.
    Does anyone rap these at any certain point or just let them ride? I’m working on maintaining a grate temp of 225-250 degrees.
    This is my first time with these ribs, any tips?
    Thanks all

    Never done beef ribs but... I like the 3,2,1 method. 3 hours on smoke, 2 in foil, 1 on sauce and smoke. Adjust time for size of racks.

    Thanks Jason, that’s the way I love for my baby backs.

    Got some butter on top and brought the ribs up to almost 205 internal and pulled them off. Let the rest for a while then dug in. Freaking unbelievable. Can’t wait to do them again.

    Sorry I missed this post MikeyB, Happy Belated Birthday and that set of ribs couldn’t be more delicious looking. Might need to try that myself!

    Beef ribs done slow are great. Ive smoked them in my Bradly smoker a few times. I prefer to not wrap them but to let them slow cook/smoke for 5-6 hours. Spritzing them with apple juice is good and seems to help make a bit of a bark. Yours look great and has inspired me to plan my next beef rib smoke.

    Same here Sean. Spritzed every so often and they rolled for a solid 6 hours.
