You have been my teacher during my short smoking tenure. I need to buy a t shirt Wooh! 😂 I actually bought my Series 3 after watching your channel. Thank you brotha!

Hey boy you got it going on. Inexpensive”At The Time”is the key phrase. Being a old fart somewhere between 70-80? we used to eat for cheap now we pay a premium for them nobody wants cuts 😂😂😂. Glad we knew what we were doing back then LoL

The way you explain is GOLD!!! You really cook some AWESOME FOOD!!!

I love my series e pit boss did a pork loin yesterday did a low and slow smoke and it turned out great. Going to have to try some ribs sometime. Keep up the great videos

I just purchaced the pitboss KC platinum combo smoker. I did 2 Boston butts and then 3 racks of pork back ribs. I was amazed at the taste. My neighbors loved them.I want to try beef ribs and brisket . I have never smoked a big ham so I'm a little nervous about that one. Enjoy your videos.

I'll be cooking some up in my Pit Boss upright smoker tomorrow, thanks for the tips.

Another great video. Can’t wait to try beef ribs in my smoker. They look amazing.

Bought one recently been watching all ur vids they are great and really help with good ideas. Thank man !!

OMG those are awesome!!! I'm doing these tomorrow!!! Outstanding job 👍

Awesome. Great tips from prep to serve. Only difference is I run at 180F on my pellet for the first two hours to help build a thick smoke ring and then 275F the rest of the way to get the bark.

Always cut towards your buddy, not your belly! You can always get another buddy lol. Awesome tips. I'm new to this smoking meat fad and have the pit boss like yours. Learning lots from your vids. Thank you!

Just bought some of these because I watched your video, going to try this out

Glad Joe at OWB shared your channel. Those ribs looked awesome!

Thanks for doing both.! Awesome video

You are the #1 reason I purchased a smoker. Every recipe I try of yours turns out amazing. Thank you for your channel. Keep the smoking coming.

These look amazing!! Nice work!

Made the plate ribs following your tips. I hit a stall around 170 internal. All together took 7 hrs. Best thing I have ever smoked thank you for all of your content

Glad to see some beef ribs here my friend!!

Nice easy to follow video. My friends debate whether to cut the membrane off at the bottom or not. I'm trying one rack now without.

Great BBQ Beef Ribs

Damn I need that bigger Pit Boss 😂I’m still loving my 3 series but I have to cut racks in half to fit them in the smaller trays and I can only smoke 4 racks of short ribs at a time. We throw a lot of parties so I think it may be time for an upgrade! My smoker is in great shape I should sell it 😂

Those look amazing! Going to try this out ASAP! Also love that you have a schnauzer!

Got a rack of back ribs in my Copperhead 5 right now... first time with this cut. Hoping for the best...!

Nice video. I'm going to try beef ribs today!

Those are the juiciest beef ribs I have ever seen Mike. They look awesome 👌

Ribs look awesome....nice job 👍🏼👍🏼🔥🔥👊🏼👊🏼

Been following you since I got my pit boss pro series vertical smoker absolutely love it had it going on 3 years. I have smoked beef, chicken and pork and my family loves how everything turns out. I even smoked a couple of whole tenderloins for my coworkers for a dinner we had they loved it, did one with applewood and the other was maple bacon. Have done a couple of briskets like you did they were melt in your mouth tender. Thanks for the helpful tips.

For dry brining, you do lose some moisture, particularly in the refrigerator, as the cold recycled air pulls moisture out of any exposed surfaces quite effectively. Not a bad thing though.

I just bought this model smoker and going to try the smaller back ribs first. How many pounds of pellets do I need for about the 5 hour burn time? BTW where did you get the custom emblem on the door?

What type of wood pellets were you using?

What black mat is that you're using to cut those on?

The ribs look awesome but that shirt is epic. Im getting o e

No water in the pan? How much difference does it make? I always keep some in mine.

I'm doing plate ribs this weekend for the fam! How many lbs is that plate rib?

I am for the very first time following your channel. I am watching your video about the beef plate, ribs and the other beef ribs. I’ve tried to find the Dino ribs and I’m really curious do you know someplace online where you can buy them or can you recommend how to find them at your local butcher?

Hi, Jack. It may just be the luck of the draw… lots of people love them and have no issues, lots of people hate them and have nothing but problems. One of the reasons I cut back on using it in my videos is people are turning to me for tech support because they can’t get through on the phone.

What was the total cook time for the back ribs?

Nice shirt..

Technical question: I have a Pit Boss 5 vertical smoker and I wonder if you ever use the water pan. If not, do you leave it in to limit the heat being directed to the bottom of the meat or do you just remove it? Makin’ these dino ribs today! First time for beef ribs.

I see some say wait till 210. What's the benefit of pulling at 200?

@WeekendWarriorBBQ

Жыл бұрын

I focus more on tenderness than temperature. Somewhere between 200 and 210 the meat will become fall apart tender. It all depends on the meat and your personal preference.

Yes it does. You want to use Kosher salt because it has larger grains of salt. This will help prevent you from over salting it.

Hey mate, I’ve smoked ribs a couple times at 225 in my Traeger and they have been smaller ribs than these and they’ve taken well over 10 hours and I end up eating at 11pm after getting up at 4 am to put them on. It’s confusing when a lot of recipes I’ve seen their ribs are bigger and take less time. What am I doing wrong?

@WeekendWarriorBBQ

There could be many factors but the bigger ribs have a lot of fat which renders. I cook at a higher temp too. Try cooking at 275 F next time

Hey Mike a little off topic but I smoked a meatloaf in my Pit Boss 3 it was shaped like a loaf around 2 pounds , it took almost 5 hours , is that normal ? I watched one of your earlier videos and you did two one pounders and it only took you about 2 hours, smoker was set to 225 F did I do something wrong. Kinda frustrated .

I have no problem smoking anything but beef. I followed this recipe except I put the smoker on 250 degrees. 4 pound short rib. 9 hours later I’m still waiting for it to come up to temp. I see all these videos saying 5-7 hours then my time even with slightly higher temps goes way longer. Hopefully when this is ready (at bedtime) it will have been worth all the effort.

This was prime. It’s getting close though currently at 192 degrees (9 hours and 49 minutes in). I had the same problem with a brisket a few years back. Family came to visit planning on eating around 5pm. I got up really early and started smoking. At 8 pm i pulled it off so they could eat (they had a long ride back home) but it was a hair too early and the brisket was tough.

The only thing I can think of would be that your smoker isn’t running as hot as you think it is. On the other hand, you only have this issue with beef so I’m at a loss for advice to give you.

I seem to notice a lot more waste on beef ribs than pork ribs. Is this normal or am I just getting a bad cut?

🍽🍽🍽🍽👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💯💯💯💯

Nice Mike, cut to your chum not your thumb. 😁

Those are some fatties! Dino ribs, look yum!

Ribs and color looked great, but I'll be the one to say it. Please, let the meat rest before you cut into it. I never used to let the meat rest until I watched all the juice run out of it like it did when those plate ribs were cut.

Dude close your chimney, lol... unless you want to burn through a bag of pellets each time.

Face is red so I know it is hot as balls out there. I don't know how he does it.

It is not good for beginners if you don’t rest it for at least 1 hour man
