Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a small bowl add the kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and smoked paprika.
  • Use a whisk to combine the spices thoroughly and set aside.
    Steps to make Smoked Beef Short Ribs: whisk together the kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and smoked paprika.
  • Trim the fat cap and silver skin off the short ribs, then rub with the olive oil.
  • Season all sides of the short ribs with the seasoning.
  • Preheat your smoker to 250 ºF. Then place the seasoned short ribs onto the grill grates. Close the lid and cook for about 5 hours. You will want to add the water and apple cider vinegar in a spritz bottle and spritz the meat every hour during this first 5-hour smoke period.
  • Now wrap the meat in peach butcher paper and continue cooking at the same temperature or a few more hours until the internal temperature of the meat reaches (200-205ºF). Once done, let it rest for at least 30 minutes before cutting. Tip: if you don't have butcher paper you can use foil instead.
    Steps to make Smoked Beef Short Ribs: trim the fat and silver skin off the meat, then rub it with olive oil and add the spice rub, then smoke it, spritzing with apple cider vinegar every hour.
