Ingredients
The Beef
- 2 lbs beef chuck ribs about 4-5 bones
- 2 Tablespoons Dijon mustard spicy with horseradish
- 6 Tablespoons Hey Grill Hey Signature Beef Seasoning or equal dry rub of your choice see below
Simple Beef Rub (Can be used in place of Beef Seasoning)
- 2 Tablespoons coarse Kosher salt
- 2 Tablespoons coarse black pepper
- 2 Tablespoons garlic powder I use McCormick's Lemon/Pepper for the whole thing.
Rib Spritz
- 1 cup white vinegar or apple cider for additional flavor, your call
- 1/4 cup hot sauce I recommend Texas Pete but use what you like.
Instructions
- Preheat your smoker to 225 degrees F using a good hard wood for the smoke The author likes oak and cherry because she is from Texas, I would rather use pecan and cherry woods for these ribs.
- Prepare your short ribs by trimming off the fat cap and silver skin on the top side of the meat.
- Slather the ribs on all sides with the mustard and season liberally with the beef seasoning or equal parts kosher salt, cracked black pepper, and garlic powder.
- Place the ribs on the smoker, close the lid, and smoke for 3 hours (without opening the lid!)
- After 3 hours, start spritzing the beef ribs with the beef stock. Spritz every hour.
- Continue smoking and spritzing until the internal temperature of your short ribs reads 205-210 degrees F, and the thermometer probe feels like it is sliding into the meat like it's softened butter.
- Remove the meat from the smoker and cover it loosely with foil. Let your short ribs rest for at least 30 minutes before serving.
