First Time Beef Ribs

Grabbed some beef back ribs the other day at a fair price. These are obviously NOT short ribs, and its apparent in size/cost/flavor. Figured it would be something new, and I found a couple posts from guys on here that led me in the right direction.

I seasoned with just salt and pepper, and did them little hotter than I do pork. I had them indirect on the kettle at 300* for 3 hours with no foil and 1 hour in foil. I took them a little further than I should have but we live and learn. They're pretty fatty, and I will trim them in my second attempt, but they were tasty. My boys liked them the most, and that's my only rating system :). We're all our own worst critics, right?

My oldest is a GREAT eater. What kid eats his salad BEFORE his croutons? Clean bones are a 4-star review.

Finally, Daddy gets to sit and eat.

We live and learn Luke. Next time you do them, they will be even better. Looks like you are raising those boys right. Do they help with grilling yet?

Thanks, Bob.
They do help. They usually help with the seasoning or if I make a rub myself. They don't touch the grill yet, but there barely tall enough to see into it. Plenty of time for that while we learn basic safety. Food and Fire.
 
As long as the boys enjoyed them all is good. Good to have them getting involved. My 6 year old daughter loves spending time in the kitchen with her old man. She actually calls me "old man" sometimes, she thinks it's funny. Me, not so much.........:rolleyes:
 
After seeing you boys on the other thread with ribs they sure appear to like your cooking. Haven't done beef ribs, can't find them here. But if there anywhere near your other cooks they had to be good.
 
Nicely done, Luke. Great shots of your sons gnawing on the ribs...who doesn't love foods that have built-in handles!
