Yellow mustard or olive oil (optional, to help rub adhere)

1 batch Jeff’s original rub (dry seasoning blend)
-
1 batch Jeff’s original barbecue sauce
Instructions
-
Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C).
-
Optional: Lightly coat beef short ribs with yellow mustard or olive oil to help the rub stick.
-
Generously apply Jeff’s original rub on all sides of the ribs.
-
Place ribs in the smoker and cook low and slow for approximately 6 to 8 hours, or until the meat is tender and pulls back from the bone.
-
During the last 30 minutes of smoking, brush the ribs with Jeff’s original barbecue sauce to glaze.
- Remove ribs from smoker, let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
-
Cooking times may vary depending on the size of ribs and smoker temperature consistency.
-
Use a meat thermometer to ensure internal temperature reaches at least 195°F (90°C) for optimal tenderness.
-
Jeff’s rub and sauce can be substituted with your favorite dry rub and BBQ sauce if unavailable.
- Letting ribs rest after smoking enhances juiciness.
