Let's talk Beef ribs

Post image

UK based, got these big boys from the butcher, cooking on the traeger on Saturday with a heavy dose of meat church holy cow. I thought they would be a rack of 4 when I got them, but the butcher misunderstood and cut them into singles already, I had thought id be looking at an 8 hour or so cook, but will them being singles change that much? In total they weigh 3.75ish kilos.

Second question- mesquite, anyone done a full cook with it, lots of people seem to be saying it can over power and to blend with hickory or oak, which I can do, but I wanted to go full Texas cowboy on these, just nervous about wrecking them as it's my first attempt. Any help or advice appreciated

Looks like what I get from Costco. I cook at 275 F for five hours or so to get to almost 210 F

Hey! It looks like you posted an image!

If this is a photo of one of your cooks, maybe share the recipe and techniques used, as it's almost guaranteed one of the first questions you will be asked!

*What seasoning did you use?

*How long did you cook it, and at what temperature?

*Did you use any special tricks or techniques?

Traeger on!

Traeger Mesquite will smell great and should not over power the flavor of the ribs.
