Mesquite Smoked BBQ Beef Ribs Recipe

Mesquite Smoked BBQ Beef Ribs

Chances are you have seen many pork ribs recipes here. Less popular, beef ribs are larger and demand a low and slow preparation. This recipe, though, will take you just 3 hours of smoking and will turn out great.

Ingredients

1 rack center cut beef ribs

2 tbsp paprika

2 tbsp white sugar

1 tbsp salt

1 tbsp chili powder

1 tbsp garlic powder

1 ½ tsp dry mustard

1 tsp ground black pepper

1 tsp cayenne pepper

1 tsp ground cumin

1 cup BBQ sauce

Preparation

Mix the spices and sugar together to make the seasoning mixture.

Peel the membrane off the back of the rack of ribs. Generously rub the seasoning mixture all over the ribs. Place in the fridge for 2-3 hours.

Set the smoker to 225°F using Mesquite flavour bisquettes.

Place the ribs in the smoker and smoke for 3 hours, or until the internal temperature of the ribs are 190°F.

Remove the ribs from the smoker and generously coat the ribs with BBQ sauce.

Let them rest for 10 minutes before cutting and serving.

Mesquite Wood Bisquettes

As the strongest of the smoker woods, it perfectly complements rich meats such as steak, duck, and lamb with its stronger, slightly sweeter, and more delicate than Hickory flavor.
