It's been a long time since I have made any beef short ribs. My buddy Joshua at the HEB butcher section hooked me up with some really nice racks about three weeks ago, so I pulled one out.

This rack is huge. It measures 11" X 10" and is 2.5" thick precooked. I remember what a pain it was trying to force them into the large vacuum sealer bags.

Really nice marbling on the side of this rack.

Some of the seasoning came off when I was forcing it into the vacuum bag, so I added a little more precook. On to the smoker running around 280* with Pecan and Mesquite chunks...

About an hour and a half in. Starting to pull back.

Three hours in, about half way done. These are going to be huge bones...

Made a little Chimichurri sauce to spread over the top of the rib before we eat...

Have some Garlic and Sour Cream Mashed Potatoes ready to cook.

And some Jalapeno Corn.

More to come...
 
Four hours in. I still expect another two hours, but these are probing really tender already. Going to let it go a little longer and then probe again. I wonder if I got some higher grade of beef and if they are just cooking faster...

These things are probing so tender at 5 hours, they are scaring me. Pulled them off and let them rest under foil...

Sliced after resting. Tender and juicy, but could have used another half hour or so. I don't want them falling apart tender, but closer than this.

Plated with Chimichurri, and sides of Garlic, Cheddar Cheese, and Sour Cream Mashed Potatoes and Jalapeno Corn.

Very juicy...

Gave our dogs, Miru and Daru, each one of the bones. Miru thought I was getting too close...

And decided to hide.

Not Daru. He just walked around with his...

Thanks for following along...
 
Excellent cook Terry. Seems like it was a great weekend for short ribs, I did some too (thread coming later).
I need to check out RD for a plate of ribs like yours, those came out perfect!
 
Thanks Sam. I wasn't able to find these at RD. I got them at our HEB (Texas grocery chain). I had to ask the butcher for them.
 
So, after posting the photos, I went in the backyard to find Miru had decided to bury his bone in Mama's flower garden. Bath time...

BTW MDBowhunter, I also did some of your cashews today. Half sweet and half spicy. They turned out pretty good, not quite as nice looking as yours, but tasty.
