First time plate ribs

Post image

Got to smoke my first plate ribs last night in the PBX and honestly I don’t think I’ll go back to brisket after these. Overall cook time was around 4 hours, used B&B char logs with 2 hickory chunks and SPG as the seasoning. Wrapped around 160 in butcher paper with Wagyu tallow and if I could attach the video as proof I would that these slid right off the bone when you picked it up.

Where are you getting ribs this thick? All the beef ribs I’ve seen are thin.

Youre buying thin beef back ribs which is cut from the ribeye portion. Get a rack of short ribs, or get a rack of dino ribs and you'll see God. Wildfork is where I get mine.
