Smoked Chuck Beef Ribs

Preparation

Preparation

1. Step 1

   Preheat a smoker or pellet grill to 275°F. Pat ribs dry with a paper towel removing any moisture collected on the surface.

2. Step 2

   Create seasoning by combining the salt and pepper (or you can use Hardcore Carnivore Black seasoning).

3. Step 3

   Rub Ribs well on all sides with the seasoning, being sure to coat generously, and seasoning the ends.

4. Step 4

   Place any remaining seasoning which has not touched the raw beef into an airtight container to use for next time.

5. Step 5

   Place the ribs into the smoker and close the lid. Cook for 5-6 hours total.

6. Step 6

   Place water and cider vinegar into a spray bottle, and lightly spritz the ribs every 30 minutes for the first 4 hours of the cook.

7. Step 7

   The ribs are ready when they are completely probe tender (this means you can insert a skewer, toothpick or thermometer anywhere in the meat, and not feel any resistance). If there are parts that still feel tough, allow the ribs to cook longer.

8. Step 8

   Once completely tender, remove the ribs from the smoker, then wrap them tightly in butcher's paper and place them into a small cooler (with no ice) to rest for 30 minutes.

9. Step 9

   To serve, slice the ribs between the bones.
