Ingredients

scaled from 6 servings
  • 1 3/4 lb bone-in beef plate short ribs
  • 3/4 tbsp coarse kosher salt
  • 3/4 tbsp coarse ground black pepper
  • 1/4 tbsp granulated garlic
  • 1/4 tbsp yellow mustard
  • 1/4 cup beef broth

Method (tap to check — screen stays awake)

  1. Trim the fat cap and silverskin from the short ribs and coat lightly with mustard.
  2. Combine equal parts salt and pepper with garlic and season the ribs on all sides.
  3. Set the smoker to 250°F with post oak and smoke the ribs bone-side down, spritzing with beef broth after the first 3 hours.
  4. Continue smoking until the internal temperature reaches 205°F and the meat is probe-tender, about 7 to 8 hours total.
  5. Rest the ribs 30 minutes, then slice between the bones into individual portions.
