My dad wanted me to try and smoke some beef short ribs. Being in Arkansas I've never had them and they are super hard to find at the grocery store. I travel to TX every week for work (for about 2 years now) and have come to love the simple brisket style and basic salt and pepper. So, I found some short ribs (4 bone) at the butcher and proceeded to add salt and pepper (fresh ground) and smoke them at 285* until tender.... Turned out great and the family was impressed. My mom in from San Antonio and loved them.
