Beef ribs? Rub/cooking info requested
A pal o' mine said that he once had barbequed beef ribs and that they
were some of the best food he'd ever eaten. He described them as being more...prime-rib-ish than barbequed pork-ribs-ish: almost no sauce, not a really strong rub, etc. Anyway, I just got a rack of beef ribs and want to try them this weekend to surprise him (he did me a big favor a few weeks back and I owe him one! ). Any suggestions on best rubs to use, cooking time and/or temp (I'm using a Big Green Egg), wood to use and sauce (if any) to use? Thanks in advance! |

Beef Short Ribs September 28, 2000 Marinade 2 cups soy sauce 2 cup Jack Daniels 1 cup Sriracha sauce 1/2 cup oyster sauce juice of 2 lemons 16 cloves garlic, minced 4 tablespoons paprika 3 tablespoons cilantro, chopped fine 2 tablespoon black pepper, ground 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, ground 2 teaspoons sugar 1 teaspoon white pepper, ground 5 to 6 pounds bone-in beef short ribs, cut between the ribs The night before the barbecue, combine all marinade ingredients, except the Jack Daniels, in a lidded quart jar, adjust all quantities to taste, then mix in the Jack Daniels and let it sit overnight. The next morning, put the ribs in a plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Tie the bag closed. Turn the meat every 1/2 hour while you’re getting the smoker ready. Prepare the smoker for barbecuing, bringing the temperature up to 200 to 220 F. Remove the ribs from the plastic bag and pour the marinade into a saucepan. Transfer the ribs to the smoker, fatty side up. Add wood chips to the fire box to add smoke for the first hour. Bring the marinade to a boil then reduce the heat to low and keep it well below a simmer. Cook the ribs for 4 to 5 hours or until 150° to 155° F. inside, mopping every hour with the marinade. Remove the ribs from the smoker and let them rest for around 10 minutes. While they’re resting, add some ketchup and a little honey to the remaining marinade, reduce and use it as a dip.

I tried cooking them in a reynolds oven bag filled with Jack Daniels and
some sliced onion. Interesting. My guests loved it. -- Jennifer Lopez Lingerie *plus* Gourmet Goodies www.cafepress.com/dwacon |

Two other substitutes are a "vegetable stir-fry sauce" or even plain old hoisin sauce. The later adds a different flavor though, while the stir-fry sauce is usually pretty close. As always with allergies, check the labels. Any decent sized grocery store should have something you could use. An Asian grocery might not be a good idea, because some imported items are notorious for not putting every ingredient on the label. Dennis |

I cook them just like I cook spares Grizzly. I get the kind that have long flat bones, about 5 - 6" long and 1"wide with considerable meat and fat around and between the bones. Mine come out sloppy with grease and get all over everything when you eat them. But, they are great with a lot of taste of their own. They need very little seasoning if any beyond S & P. You can cook at any temp from ~200°F to 375°F with little difference in results other then cooking time. I've been cooking just about everything at 275° to 325° lately. Nobody complains about the product and nothing lasts very long. -- The Brick said that (Don't bother to agree with me, I have already changed my mind.) ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |

That brings blisters to my tongue just reading it. That's 20% Sriracha. If using Habanero sauce, I would use less. ;-) > > > 1/2 cup oyster sauce > > Is there a viable substitute to this ingredient since three of the five > Clan Ranger members are highly allergic to oysters and oyster sauce? Ya know, Kemosabe, I tried to find out where I got the original recipe, to no avail. My wife or I may have added it because we thought it improved the taste for us. Generally speaking, there is no substitute for Oyster sauce. I'm trying to think of what could be done with Clam juice, if they could handle that. Sorry about the allergies. Requires great diligence when eating out, especially at Asian restaurants. > > > [..] While they're resting, add some ketchup and > > a little honey to the remaining marinade, reduce and > > use it as a dip. > > Why would you add ketchup? Body for the dip? I can understand the honey > giving it another level of complexity but what if you added it earlier > (as a part of the marinade)? Or would the sugar caramelize and burn > during the smoking process? > Because we had young kids over? Because it was in the original? I don't remember, Ranger. When I make a recipe, I always do an after-action report that includes the mods made during prep and thoughts for future changes (there were none of the latter in this case), so what I posted is what I made five years ago! BTW I now use Jim Beam as my cookin' whiskey. Old Forester fer sippin'! The JD is resigned to lighting the lump in my chimney. Flame away!!! -- Nick.

The only one I was aware of is Hoisin, which I didn't mention, because, as you've pointed out, the flavor is quite different. My daughters have 21 Thai sauces on the sideboy by the stove, and that doesn't include shrimp and curry pastes, the Hoisin (Chinese), MY hot sauces, hot vinegar and hot oil, or the BBQ sauces. -- Nick.
